Trying so hard not to cry
|
Since they say man ain't supposed to cry
|
But these tears keep running from my eyes
|
I remember the day I came to the city.
|
My children were crying
|
My wife was scared
|
She's gonna lose me
|
To the girls in the city
|
To make her feel alright I
|
said it's impossible
|
But I was wrong
|
|
Chorus:
|
Can't blame you when you're going
|
This is something you've got to do
|
You've got to go ho ho.
|
You've been keeping me here all these years as your private lover
|
Letters came from home
|
But I never answered
|
'Till tonight when I got this letter
|
From my little daughter saying
|
"Missing you daddy."
|
It's time to go.
|
|
Chorus:
|
Can't blame you (as above)
|
|
See me now, see me no more
|
I heard that whistle blow
|
I knew it's time to go
|
Sitting here in this train
|
Going so fast past the trees
|
I'm thinking of words to apologize
|
'Cause sorry ain't enough
|
|
Chorus:
|
Can't blame you (till fade)
|
