Mamas And The Papas, The - Did You Ever Want To Cry Lyrics
Did you ever want to cry,
But you didn't know just why?
Did you ever sit up all night long
Just listening to that same old song -
The one they played when she said nothin' could go wrong?
Did you really think that she'd be true?
Wasn't that rather naive of you?
And now she's dropped you like a worn-out shoe.
She's got you drinking gin,
And you know that's a sin.
You go honky-tonkin' every night;
You get drunk and then you start a fight.
I know that you think that it's alright -
Wrong, it's not the way to live; you only get what you give!
But, when you lie with dogs, you gotta get fleas.
And now she's brought you down to your knees.
Arms that used to hold you tight -
You miss them in the middle of night.
You burned a candle at both ends;
Now it's too late...too late to make amends.
You've even lost your old time friends...
Enemies glad to see you down;
People, they don't want you hangin' round.
Did you ever want to cry,
But you didn't know just why?
Right, I know you did.
Wrong, it's not the way to live.
Did you ever want to cry...

Cass Elliott was just as beautiful as her voice. She was perfection!
But, when you lie with dogs, you gotta get fleas... at 1:41
Hey all! My attempt covering this song, lmk what you think! https://youtu.be/Brye-jvU-KE
That NOT mamas and pappas
Hermoso, esto es cierto.
So smooth
Cass Elliot had a beautiful voice. No one will ever sing those songs like she did. R.I.P. to a beautiful lady who is missed but NEVER will be forgotten.
This is a personal favorite from school days - and it's a great opportunity to explain that sometimes a tendency to cry is caused by an allergy to Iodine and/or problems with the thyroid, para-thyroid, and other glands and hormones. Ain't it? Bless uP!
That Fantastic Four, man!!!!!!!
I wish the vocals were slightly louder, but other than that this is just perfect!
Wonderful song!
I can't stop listening to this song over and over!
John wrote several songs about them (I saw her again, got a feeling, go where you wanna go) so it's not impossible.
is this song about Michelle and Denny?
Great Guys!
love this song!
