Lynn Anderson - Cry, Cry Again lyrics

I put my little girl to bed
With teardrops in her eyes
All day I've tried to comfort her
And louder were her cries
I left her there to say her
Prayers and stepped outside the door
The prayer I heard was one I
Knew I'd never heard before

Please have my mommy ask my
Daddy to come home
Sometimes I'll cry and get my
Way and mommy's so alonе
She told me once that whеn I'm
Right I never should give in
So if at first I don't
Succeed I'll cry cry again

I know our little girl is right
And we're both in the wrong
And so I've called you up tonight
To ask you please come home
I can't go on or stand for
Long the way she cries today
And I can't go to sleep at
Night because I heard her pray

Please have my mommy ask my
Daddy to come home
Sometimes I'll cry and get my
Way and mommy's so alone
She told me once that when I'm
Right I never should give in
So if at first I don't
Succeed I'll cry cry again
