Lord, I just can't keep from cryin'

Lord, I just can't keep from cryin' some time

When my heart is full of sorrow

And my eyes are full of tears

Lord, I just can't keep from cryin' some time.

Lord, I fold my arms and cry some time

When my heart is full of sorrow

And my eyes are full of tears

Lord, I fold my arms and cry some time.

Lord, I hum a tune and cry some time

When my heart is full of sorrow

And my eyes are full of tears

Lord, I hum a tune and cry some time.
