Christy Moore - Cry Like A Man lyrics

Cry Like A Man Dan Penn Take a look around you,how much longer can you live this way Trash on the floor from weeks before,just gets deeper by the day Cant let go of that foolish pride,you keep it locked up inside Time to face the pain,stand up and cry like a man Theres no one left to blame now,she had her reason why she had to go The feelings you hid the love you could'nt give kept her from touchin your soul You got to break down that fortress inside and surrender to the tears in your eyes You'll never be free again til you cry like a man Theres no shame in letting teardrops fall,its a good thing it'll be alright A little rain can make the trees grow tall,you've got to be strong, so stand up and cry like a man You know shes gone for good now,your love is torn beyond repair theres not a trace of a tear on your face there ought to be some there those deep emotions you keep in the dark,if you dont let them out there goin to freeze up your heart you'll never be free again til you cry like a man So Stand Up and Cry Like a Man CHRISTY'S COMMENT If you are playing with the recordings I have made -try capo on 3rd or 4th fret
