If All I Do Is Cry

Don’t you be afraid of my gun

Or you’ll never hear me

Don’t you be afraid of my gun

Or you won’t get near me

Over and over again

I tried hard to make you happy

Over and over again, I tried

Now I’m just trigger happy

Don’t you be afraid of my gun

I am not a killer

Don’t you be afraid

Because if you run

It becomes a thriller

The soldiers of fortune have come

And they come with the sisters of mercy

Slicing and dicing their way into each day

‘Cause that’s how you hurt me

And then your lawyers tried to work me

If all I do is cry

I cry a fountain

If all I do is cry

I cry a sea

If all I do is cry

I cry a river

If all I do is cry

Don’t you be afraid of my voice

If I scream a little

Don’t you be afraid of my choice

Though it’s still a riddle

The bullets and bandits have come

And they come with their ulcers bleeding

I came to you when I was young

Now I come like a shark that’s feeding

And with a tale/tail so long it bears repeating

If all I do is cry

I cry a fountain

If all I do is cry

I cry a sea

If all I do is cry

I cry a river

If all I do is cry

Over and over again

I tried hard to make you happy

Over and over again

We tried to reach you

So that’s why they sent me

You never know the price of envy

If all I do is cry

I cry a fountain

If all I do is cry

I cry a sea

If all I do is cry

I cry a river

If all I do is cry
