My baby, he says he loves me
My baby, he says he needs me so
Covers me with sunshine
Tucks me in with songs

Every now and then
Troubles come my way
Asks me what to do
And to him I simply say

I gotta cry sometimes but it's alright
I gotta cry sometimes, it's alright
I gotta cry sometimes but it's alright

My baby, he brings me flowers
Takes me out to see the shows
He don't need complainin'
I couldn't ask, couldn't ask for more

Every now and then
Troubles come my way
Asks me what to do
And to him I simply say

I gotta cry sometimes but it's alright
I gotta cry sometimes but it's alright
I gotta cry sometimes but it's alright

Now, I'd like to thank you for everything you do
Whenever I'm around you, you turn my gray skies blue
And if the world should crumble, it's alright

I gotta cry sometimes but it's alright
I gotta cry sometimes, it's alright, yeah, yeah
Gotta cry sometimes, gotta cry sometimes, gotta cry
