I say that I don't worry and our parting brought no pain   I tell them I'll be happy if we never meet again   About the time I get 'em fooled and think I'm really smart   I realize that I can't hide my cry baby heart      Cry baby heart I wish you were a stone   So I could really laugh and say I'm better off alone   But like an actor in a play I stumble through my part   You're always giving me away you cry baby heart   [ steel ]   I try to find somebody else but no one else will do   I'd rather sit at home alone and worry over you   I wish that I could run away and make another start   But what's the use I'd still obey my cry baby heart      Cry baby heart I wish you were a stone...
