I Can't Keep From Cryin' Sometimes

I can't keep from crying sometimes

I can't keep from crying sometimes

Oh, mama dead and gone and I, I'm all alone

I can't keep from crying sometimes

Early in the morning

About the break of day

I fall down on my knees

I fall down and I pray

I think about my woman

My woman who's long gone

And I can't keep from crying sometimes, Lord have mercy

I can't keep from crying sometimes

Oh, mama dead and gone and I, I'm all alone

I can't keep from crying sometimes

Late time in the evening

I watch the sun go down

I think about my woman

But my woman, Lord, she ain't around

My heart is filled with sadness

And my eyes are filled with tears

I can't keep from crying sometimes

And I can't keep from crying sometimes

Oh, mama dead and gone and I, I'm all alone

I can't keep from crying sometimes

I can't keep from crying sometimes

I said I can't keep from crying sometimes
