Lyrics for I Can't Keep from Crying Sometimes

Well I cannot keep from crying sometimes You know I cannot keep from crying sometimes My heart is full of sorrow My eyes are full of tears I cannot keep from crying sometimes Well I thought when she first left me I'd get on a little while Soon it'll be all over And I'd journey with a smile But as I get older I think of what I told her I cannot keep from crying sometimes I cannot keep from crying sometimes You know I cannot keep from crying sometimes My heart is full of sorrow My eyes are full of tears I cannot keep from crying sometimes Well I thought when she first left me I'd get on a little while Soon it'll be all over And I'd journey with a smile But as I get older I think of what I told her I laugh to keep from crying sometimes You know I cannot keep from crying sometimes You know I cannot keep from crying sometimes My heart is full of sorrow My eyes are full of tears I cannot keep from crying sometimes I laugh to keep from crying sometimes Well I cannot keep from crying sometimes You know I cannot keep from crying sometimes My heart is full of sorrow My eyes are full of tears I cannot keep from crying sometimes Well I thought when she first left me I'd get on a little while Soon it'll be all over And I'd journey with a smile But as I get older I think of what I told her I laugh to keep from crying some times
