You may cry me a river I cried I love you A river of tears for you Come on now and cry me a river of tears Now you say you love me But you cry the whole night through You can cry me a river Oh, yes, you're goin' to cry me a river 'Cause I cried a river

Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die I met her accidentally in St. Paul,

We'll get higher and higher Oh that's what dreams are made of Straight up we'll climb Leave it all behind So baby dry your eyes, save all The tears you've cried World turns black and white Pictures in an empty room Your love starts fallin down

'Cause the woman that was with me She treated me so dirty, lowdown, and bad Cried all night, alone in my bed I'm gonna treat her the best way that I can I ain't got no woman but I don't feel sad I ain't got no woman, but I don't, no I don't feel sad

Well, I rolled and I tumbled, Cried the whole night long. Well, I told my baby, Before I left that town. Owww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh. Well, if the river was whiskey, And I was a divin' duck. Well, I could a had a religion, This bad old thing instead.

Cry me a river I cried a river over you Come on and cry me a river I've cried a river over you You drove me Nearly drove me out of my head Why you never shed a tear I remember every word you said

I don't want you to take The other night dear, as I lay sleeping Oh I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken Do you know that I hung my Oh my head and I cried Oh you are my sunshine, my only sunshine Girl, you make me happy when

Raining, all over the world There's gonna be a showdown And it's raining, all over the world Tonight, the longest night Raining, raining She cried to the Southern wind About a love that was sure to end Every dream in her heart was gone Heading for a

Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die I met her accidentally in St. Paul,

Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong, this ain't a love song If the love that I got for you's gone, if the river I cried ain't that long I cried and I cried, there were nights that I died for you, baby I tried and I tried to deny that your love drove me
