And didnt wanna cry 'cause my pride was too But the years I thought it over And after struggling for so long and holding on I figured, be nothing all that wrong with crying If anybody says that theyre that strong theyre
See crying is like taking your soul to the Its like the that you get When you see grandmama smile Or the heavens open up and rain down
Go on and cry Go on and cry, cry, cry Go on and cry, cry, cry We can cry, we can cry
See I done been a player and I done been I done for some of the oldest tricks From of the coldest chicks God ever made
[Incomprehensible] me I done even had a venereal disease And didnt wanna go to the All that embarrassing me
But over the Ive to understand That I dont really give a nobody say, Im a man And we cry, we can cry, we can We can cry, we can cry
bout wo, wo, wo, yea, yea, yea They say a man supposed to cry But I know, know, sho, sho That even men go through problems
bout wo, wo, wo, yea, yea, yea They say a man supposed to cry But I know, know, sho, sho That even men go through sometime
Im a man and we cry Cry, cry, cry
