Baby, Why
Are You Cryin' So?
1986
Al Simmons
Baby... why are you cryin' so,
I've seen alot of sad people,
But I never seen no one so low.
The tears from your eyes
Are drippin' off your nose,
Like the morning dew drops
Rollin' off a rose.
Baby... tell me what i can do for you
If you don't stop cryin' soon,
You'll start me cryin' too.
I gave you a new diaper
It wasn't even wet,
I offered you milk and mashed bananas
And you ain't stopped cryin' yet.
Baby... why are you cryin' so
I've seen a lot of sad people
But I never seen no one so low.
I tried to make you smile
By tickling all the right places,
You got me walkin' in circles,
Givin you hugs and makin' silly faces.
I gave you your favorite blanket,
And still you continue to cry.
I patted your back
To get you to burp,
Now I'll sing you a lullaby.
Baby... I wonder why you cry,
I wish you could talk to me baby
And tell me the reason why.
Baby tell me what I can do for you
Baby tell me what I can do for you
Maybe you miss your mama
Well Lord I miss her too.
