I'm Gonna Cry (If You Quit Me)

(الألبوم: 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best Of Barrett Strong - 2003)

Well, all my life, I've been real strong
I ain't ever been hurt when things go wrong
I'm hard as a rock, and just as tough
I don't play and I don't bluff

But I'm gonna cry, I'm gonna cry
I'm gonna cry if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Yeah, baby, if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Whoa, baby, if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry)

Yeah, I've conceded in all I tried
When trouble comes, I never hide
I kept running through the jungle
Kill a lion with a switch
Everybody knows I'm bad as I can be

But I'm gonna cry, baby, I'm gonna cry
I'm gonna cry if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Oh baby, if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Whoa, baby, if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Yeah...

Well, I'll fight a bear in the forest or a shark in the sea
A tiger in a cage and an ape in a tree
And in the rain, cold, hot or sunny, I won't run
I used to beat the cops just for fun

But I'm gonna cry, baby; I'm gonna cry, baby
I'm gonna cry if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Oh baby, if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Whoa, honey, so don't you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Ah, baby, I may be rough
(I'm gonna cry) And I may, I may be tough
(I'm gonna cry) But I'm gonna cry
(I'm gonna cry) If you quit me
(I'm gonna cry) Yeah, if you quit me
(I'm gonna cry)
