That you will cry in spite of you
There ain't nothing right, nothing wrong
Little wet tears on my baby's shoulder
That you will cry in spite of you
I have walked these streets so long
And I have walked these streets so long
While she sings she makes them feel things
Now it's time to say goodbye
Corner street societies
Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder
Learned to sing and learned to cry
But they believe her, they never leave her
Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder
Little wet tears on my baby's shoulder
Lady lights a cigarette, puffs away, and winter comes
There ain't nothing right, there ain't nothing wrong
Little wet tears on my baby's shoulder
Stretches out like branches of a poplar tree
Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder
Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder
Some might laugh but I will surely cry
Lady lights a cigarette, puffs away, no regret
In the smoke-filled world where the jokes are cold
Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder
She says, I'm free, sings so soft as if she'll break
But the little wet tears on my baby's shoulder
Takes a look around, no regrets, no regrets
But the little wet tears on my baby's shoulder
She says, I can sing this song so blue
Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder
Says, I can sing this song so blue
But on this stage I've learned to fly
They don't laugh at jokes, they laugh at tragedies
Little wet tears on my baby's shoulder
