Cry Cry - Grant-Lee Phillips

In the winter when the streams are frozen

In the winter when the birds don’t sing

That’s when I lost my home

When I lost everything

Kept a' walkin' ‘till my feet were bloody

Left everything we knew

When they took us ‘cross the Mississippi

Nothin' that I could do but

Cry, Cry

Cry

Keep a' pushin' on into the ocean

Dancin' like a man in chains

‘Till you wind up where the sod is hard

Here where you lose you name

Same people said that I was Godless

Same people showed how to pray

Same people with a pen or rifle

Same people took it all away

Cry, Cry

Cry

One more mile

One more night

One thousand lies won’t make it right

Cry, cry

One more mile

One more night

One thousand lies won’t make it right

In the winter when the streams are frozen

In the winter when the birds don’t sing

That’s when I lost my home

When I lost everything

Cry, Cry

Cry
