I Can'T Keep From Crying Sometimes

I cannot keep from crying sometimes
No, I cannot keep from crying sometimes
Though my heart is full of sorrow and my eyes are full of tears
I just can't keep from crying sometimes

I thought when she first left me
I'd get on a little while
Soon it'd be all over
And I'd journey with a smile
But the thoughts as I get older
When I think of what I told her
I laugh to keep from crying sometimes
I'm on the King's highway
And I'm traveling night and day
But I just can't keep from crying sometimes

I cannot keep from crying sometimes
No, I cannot keep from crying sometimes
Though my heart is full of sorrow and my eyes are full of tears
Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes

I thought when she first left me
I'd get on a little while
Soon it'd be all over
And I'd journey with a smile
But the thoughts as I get older
When I think of what I told her
I laugh to keep from crying sometimes

I cannot keep from crying sometimes
No, I cannot keep from crying sometimes
Though my heart is full of sorrow and my eyes are full of tears
