Did You Ever Want to Cry

<br>(John Phillips) <br>Did you ever want to cry,<br>But you didnжЉ° know just why? <br>Did you ever sit up all night long<br>Just listening to that same old song---<br>The one they played when she said nothin?could go wrong?<br>Right, I know you did; oh, you kid---<br>Did you really think that sheжЉЋ be true? <br>WasnжЉ° that rather naive of you? <br>And now sheжЉЇ dropped you like a worn-out shoe.<br><br>SheжЉЇ got you drinking gin,<br>And you know thatжЉЇ a sin. <br>You go honky-tonkin` every night;<br>You get drunk and then you start a fight.<br>I know that you think that itжЉЇ alright---<br>Wrong, itжЉЇ not the way to live; you only get what you give! <br>You can live your life just as you please,<br>But, when you lie with dogs, you gotta get fleas. <br>And now sheжЉЇ brought you down to your knees. <br>Arms that used to hold you tight--- <br>You miss them in the middle of night. <br>You burned a candle at both ends;<br>Now itжЉЇ too late...too late to make amends.<br>YouжЉіe even lost your old time friends...<br><br>Enemies glad to see you down;<br>People, they donжЉ° want you hangin?round. <br>Did you ever want to cry, <br>But you didnжЉ° know just why? <br>Right, I know you did. <br>Wrong, itжЉЇ not the way to live. <br>Did you ever want to cry...
