Loudon Wainwright Iii - I'm Not Gonna Cry lyrics

I'm not gonna cry today, I won't shed a tear Even if some milk is spilt, I won't dilute my beer I won't use a tissue, my pillow will stay dry And I won't need a shoulder, 'cause I'm not gonna cry I'm not gonna snivel, and I'm not gonna sob Both my eyes will remain dry, and I won't have to dob them Move me with a tragedy, just go ahead and try Play me a tearjerker, but I'm not gonna cry I'm not gonna weep today, I will not wet my cheek I'll count to ten and I'll hold it in, I'm not gonna leak I'm not gonna lose it, 'though I may wanna die They say it's good to let it out, but I'm not gonna cry I'm not gonna blub today, and I'm not gonna bawl And I'm not gonna fall apart, even if you call me I couldn't cry for forty years, I was too tough a guy Now I can do it anytime, but I'm not gonna cry I must have cried a million tears, at least ninety-six I cried me a river, and an ocean just for kicks Listen to the thunder, dark clouds fill the sky Well, it looks like rain and I hear a train, but I'm not gonna cry Yeah, well, it looks like rain and I hear a train, but I'm not gonna cry
