I can't keep from crying sometimes
I fall down on my knees
I think about my woman
I fall down and I pray
I can't keep from crying sometimes
I think about my woman
I can't keep from crying sometimes
About the break of day
Oh momma she's dead and gone
Oh momma she's dead and gone
And I know I'm all alone
I watch the sun go down
And my eyes are filled with tears
And I know I'm all alone
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Later in the evening
I can't keep from crying sometimes
But my woman Lord she ain't around
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Oh momma she's dead and gone
My woman who's long gone
Early in the morning
And I know I'm all alone
My heart is filled with sadness
