It's A Cryin' Shame

(album: Moods - 1978)

It's a crying shame
It's a crying shame
We had a good thing going
But it got away
It's just a crying shame

It's a crying shame
It's a crying shame
I don't point no fingers
I don't place no blame
It's just a crying shame

First it was love
And then it was hate
Out went the feel good baby
And in came the ache
Once it was warm
Then it was cold
You know it struck like lighting, baby
Then it all went up in smoke

It's a crying shame
It's a crying shame
We had a good thing going
But it got away
It's just a crying shame

It's a crying shame
It's a crying shame
I don't point no fingers
I don't place no blame
It's just a crying shame

Once it was honest
And now it's a lie
We had all the answers
But now we're asking why
At first it was alright
But now it's all wrong
We keep trying to feel it
But the feelings all have gone

It's a crying shame
It's a crying shame
We had a good thing going
But it got away
It's just a crying shame

It's a crying shame
It's a crying shame
I don't point no fingers
I don't place no blame
It's just a crying shame
