Lyrics:

I can't keep from cry sometimes
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Momma she's dead and gone
And I know I'm all alone
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Early in the morning about the break of day
I fall down on my kness I fall down and I pray
I think about my woman my woman who's long gone
I can't keep from cry sometimes
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Momma she's dead and gone
And I know I'm all alone
I can't keep from crying sometimes

SOLO

Later in the evening
I watch the sun go dowm
I think about my woman
But my woman lord she ain't around
My heart is filled with sadness
My eyes are filled with tears
I can't keep from cryin sometimes all right
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Momma she's dead and gone
And I know I'm all alone
I can't keep from crying sometimes
