Boy Who Cries - Sam.Sts

I was lucky as a child Mama taught us right from wrong And how Jesus loves us all Though they barely did get by I never saw them cry They said when things get rough You gotta pick yourself up Now, the years have taken me Down a twisted crazy street At times I've drifted off The path that I should walk And Jesus helped me through some hard times My wife and children by my side I'm not perfect by a long mile No matter how I try But I've been blessed enough in my life To make up for any strife If you look closely deep in my eyes You might see a few happy tears From a man who never cries It's hard to let my feelings show The ones I love don't always know Like I'm leadin' my horse blind To a place that I can't find But I know I can't complain I've seen more sun than I have rain When I look at where I've come Who I am and what I've done, oh I know And Jesus helped me through some hard times My wife and children by my side I'm not perfect by a long mile No matter how I try But I've been blessed enough in my life To make up for any strife If you look closely deep in my eyes You might see a few happy tears From a man who never cries Jesus helped me through some hard times My wife and children by my side I'm not perfect by a long mile No matter how I try But I've been blessed enough in my life To make up for any strife If you look closely deep in my eyes You might see a few happy tears From a man who never cries From a man who never cries From a man who never cries

Well I am the boy who cried wolf And I know I've lied in the past But last night I saw his yellow eyes shining in the dark Yeah, I know I spun tales with his voice And I open my mouth too fast But last night I saw his footprints in the path Well I could swim every sea from south pole to north But I know I'll only ever be the boy who cried wolf Well I am the shepherds only son And I know what a joke I've become I have an honest heart, but I have lies on my tongue I don't know how this started or where it came from And you have no reason and I have no proof But this time I swear, I'm telling the truth I saw that old wolf, from tail to tooth And I know that he's hungry and he's coming down too Well I could swim every sea from south pole to north And I could climb every tree, and scale every coarse Well I could tell only the truth from this day forth But I know I'll only ever be the boy who cried wolf Oh, oh, I-I am the boy who cried wolf Oh, oh, oh, oh, I am the boy who cried

When I think back to the first time in my childhood When I saw that face, I thought right then That's a real good looking boy I saw myself in the mirror in profile For the first time, I thought Hey, that's a real good looking boy And I felt then that I moved With all those lucky fucks and angels High in the theater in the sky So I ran to my mother I said, "Hey Mom, take a look at me Have you ever seen a teen fly so high?" That's a real good looking boy That's a real good looking boy She said, "Son, well you know you're an ugly boy You don't really look like him" In this long line, there's been some real strange genes You got 'em all, you got 'em all with some extras thrown in That's a real good looking boy That's a real good looking boy That's a real good looking boy That's a real good looking boy Wise men say "Only fools, only fools rush in" But I, I can't help Falling in love, in love with you Now I'm here with you, little darling And you say, "You're beautiful as you are" And I've managed somehow to survive You arrived in my life like a fragrance You helped me find a way to laugh Now I know how so called beauty lies God gave him a face Then he gave me something above God gave me a grace Then he gave me your sweet, sweet, sweet love You make me feel I'm a real good looking boy I feel I'm a real good looking boy That's a real good looking boy That's a real good looking boy
