Boys Don't Cry

Mother forgive me

I felt this was the right time to fly the nest

Didn't mean to hurt you

It's hard to get by, I'm doing my best

Mama, we both know

There's a few things we've left and said now

Distance reminds me when I was your little boy

Now I'm crying in my bed

If I could make it by now (I won't)

Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't)

Your son is shining bright now

They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more

How is the old man?

Hope he has quit smoking big cigars

Tell him I miss him

Tell him it wasn't me who broke his car

Mama, don't dismay

I found a good girl and we're making plans

Now this is a new revolution, spreading the message

Now your boy turned into a man

If I could make it by now (I won't)

Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't)

Your son is shining bright now

They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more

If I could make it by now (I won't)

Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't)

Your son is shining bright now

They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more

I cry no more, I'm movin' on

I cry no more, I'm movin' on

I cry no more, I'm movin' on

I cry no more

If I could make it by now (I won't)

Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't)

Your son is shining bright now

They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more

If I could make it by now (I won't)

Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't)

Your son is shining bright now

They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more

I cry no more, I'm movin' on (No, no, no)

I cry no more, I'm movin' (I'm done in crying, mama, yeah, yeah)

I cry no more, I'm movin' on (Crying no more)

I cry no more (No, no, no)
