She is cryin, she is cryin
Shes been cryin all night long
Shes been cryin for her one and only son

She will weep, she will moan
She will moan the night away
She will weep and moan until the break of day

I had called for the doctor,
But the doctor cant be found
So what could I do but sit and look around?

Oh lord, wont you hear,
Wont you hear me when I pray
Please send this girl her one and only son

She is cryin, she is cryin
She is cryin the whole night long
She is cryin for her one and only son
