Cry Before I Go
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you gotta cry, baby, little girl, cry before I go
You gotta cry, baby, little girl, cry before I go
There ain't nothin' you can say, a-make me stay another day
Your my lovin', whoa, I was so green
I gave ya all of my lovin', whoa, I was so green
Well, now I know the score, Jimmy Reed, got to split the scene
Watch you cryin', baby, give me a reason I shouldn't go
Watch you cry, baby, give me a reason I shouldn't go
If it makes any sense to me, baby, I'll come walkin' back in that door
