The Man Who Cried

lyrics

The Man Who Cried

I never knew his name when he was alive,
I only heard his story after he had died
And the newspapers said
They were glad he was died.

Oh, how they despised the man who cried.
How they despised the man who cried.

Everyone fantasized about his widowed bride
And the truth behind all those sordid lies
When the newspapers said
They caught her naked in bed.

Oh, how they despised the man who cried.
How they despised the man who cried.

His poor children hung their heads in shame
Every time they heard, they heard their daddy’s name
Cos the newspapers said
He shot himself in the head.

Oh, how they despised the man who cried.
How they despised the man who cried.
