Cryin’ Shame Song Lyrics

Cryin’ Shame by Dion

Why don’t you tell me when it’s comin’ on?
Why don’t you tell me when I’m going wrong?
Why don’t you tell me when I lost my touch?
Why don’t you tell me when I drink too much?

Oh, how I fell, down a well
The lights went out
Yeah, the lights went out
I couldn’t get my grip again
The means they justified the end
It’s a cryin’ shame

Nobody told me what it’s all about
Nobody told me I could bottom out
Nobody told me I was stumbling
Nobody told me about anything

Wow, then I fell, all to hell
The lights went out
You always called yourself a friend
You weren’t there to lift me then
It’s a cryin’ shame
Cryin’ shame

I don’t remember when I tasted blood
I don’t remember when I hit the mud
I can’t remember that blackout day
All I remember is that you walked away

Oh, then I fell, was like hell
The lights went out
I got no money I can spend
I got some hurts that just won’t mend
It’s a cryin’ shame
Cryin’ shame

Why do I wait when you won’t come back?
I’m on the wrong side of the zodiac
I wish you would love me like my honey do
I’m gonna drink without a thought of you

Wow, then I fell, all to hell
The lights went out
I’m waiting for the day’s return
I’m livin’ for that liquor burn
It’s a cryin’ shame
Lights went out!
