Way Down (I Won't Cry No More)

(albüm: Blues With Friends - 2020)

Baby put me way down
Walking through the alleys of midtown
Thinking all about what she stole
I'm crying out, "Lord, please save my soul!"

I've had no money since midnight
I bet it all on a fistfight
A pint of whiskey don't last long
I'm crying out, "Lord, she done me wrong!"

I won't cry more
I won't die no more
I won't lie no more
I been way down, but I won't stay down

I came home early at sunrise
She looked into my red eyes
Said she don't want me no more
I'm crying out, "Lord! She walked out the door!"

Stuck in quicksand, she said
A hatful of sorrow on my head
Can't even get me a good buzz
Can't even find the man that I was

I won't cry more
I won't die no more
I won't lie no more
I been way down, I won't stay down

My baby put me way down
Walking through the alleys of midtown
Thinking all about what she stole
I'm crying out, "Lord, please save my soul!"

I won't cry more
I won't die no more
I won't lie no more
I been way down, but I won't stay down
No, no, no, no more
