Crying Shame Lyrics

Well I woke up this morning on the wrong side of bed

I couldn't remember a word you had said

The night before we had a fight I was wrong and you was

Right on the money when you showed me the door

You told me you couldn't take no more

It's true it's over finished done the burden on your shoulders must weigh a ton

Did you ever think it might be the blues or the pills that you take on top of the booze

Well either way it's done you in

What a crying shame what a cardinal sin

Well I woke up this morning on the wrong side of love

I guess you must know who I was thinking of

I might be mad if things were clear I'm alone and you're not

There is a reason that it happens a lot I don't think that you're well

I thought I'd try to call you up on the phone

But I hung up before I heard the tone

It's true it's ended finished done seems it was over before it begun

Did I ever think I might be the cause

It couldn't be me with all of my flaws

Well either way it's done you in

What a crying shame what a cardinal sin

Yes I got up this morning and I opened the news now I've got a bad case of the blues

There was a photo of a smiling you in the newlywed section on page 22

I almost choked on my toast and tea

What a pretty girl what an oh dear me

Well I closed the paper and I started to think it was barely 8:30

It was too soon to drink

I shook my head couldn't help but grin

What a crying shame what a cardinal sin

Yeah wedding bells rang for you and him

What a crying shame what a cardinal sin
