Cryin' Season
©1992 Dakota Sid Clifford


I once sang a song that made somebody cry
I do not sing 'em for that reason
I sing because I cannot quiet my soul
Or just because it's cryin' season
It's only cryin' season

If you were near to me for just a little while
And said some things that you were feelin'
And I sang them back to you in my poetic style
Would you accuse me of stealin'
Wheelin' and dealin'

Instrumental:

I would not want to live in fear of dying
Or lay awake wondering about making it through the night
The least little joy often-time sets me to crying
But only love ever made me want to fight
Only love, only love ever made me want to start a fight

I once sang a song that made somebody cry
I do not sing 'em for that reason
I sing because I cannot quiet my soul
Or just because it's cryin' season
It's only cryin' season
