Don't Come Crying to Me

Lorne Clarke & Tom Flannery
Language: English




When they announce they're starting up the draft
Don't come cryin' to me
When they send your kid off to Iraq
Don't come cryin' to me
When you're in the graveyard dressed in black
When the terrorists attack
When the people of the world just turn their backs
Don't come cryin' to me

Don't come cryin' to me, my friend
Don't come cryin' to me
You only reap the crop you sow
So don't come cryin' to me

When the mill shuts down and moves away
Don't come cryin' to me
When they take your benefits away
Don't come cryin' to me
When the bills stack up and you can't pay
When the banker comes to take your house away
When no one hears you when you pray
Don't come cryin' to me

Don't come cryin' to me, my friend
Don't come cryin' to me
You only reap the crop you sow
So don't come cryin' to me

When it's treasonous to reminisce
Don't come cryin' to me
When they're spying on you when you're taking a piss
Don't come cryin' to me
When the Secret Service is at your door
And your library card falls to the floor
They found you're been reading that Michael Moore
Don't come cryin' to me

When your social security just ain't there
Don't come cryin' to me
When you're auctioning off your Mother's rocking chair
Don't come cryin' to me
Looking for a buyer for your SUV
Spent your tax cut on a spree
Soldier grandson becomes an amputee
Don't come cryin' to me

Don't come cryin' to me, my friend
Don't come cryin' to me
You only reap the crop you sow
So don't come cryin' to me.
