Black Oak Arkansas – Cryin' Shame lyrics
I've tried my best
Just to pass the test
But I don't think I'm gonna make it
Ramblin', people
Got a hold on me
And I just can't seem to shake it
I'm always down
Since I hit this town
Jesus, it sure is a pity
I'll never understand
The woman or the man, what
Gets off livin' in the city
Any way you say it
The name's the same
Can anybody tell me who's to blame?
Any way you say it
The name's the same
Livin' like this is a cryin' shame
Cryin' shame
Cryin' shame
Workin' all day
Got no time to play
It's enough to make you worry
I just can't see
For the life of me
Why everyone's in such a hurry
It takes all my money
Just to please my honey
And it sure is makin' me crazy
Gotta find a way
For to get my pay
Layin' 'round feelin' lazy
Any way you say it
The name's the same
Somebody tell me, now, who's to blame?
Any way you say it
The name's the same
Livin' like this is a cryin' shame
Cryin' shame
Cryin' shame
Cryin' shame
