I done had money
I done been broke
I done been talked about something awful
Done been lied on by so many folks
I done even been depressed at times
And didn't want to cry cause my pride was too strong
But over the years I thought it over
And after struggling for so long and still holding on
I figured, can't be nothing all that wrong with crying
If anybody says that they're that strong they're lying
See crying is like taking you soul to the Laundromat
It's like the feelings that you get
When you see your Grand-mama smile
Or the heavens open up and blessing rain down
Go on child and cry
Go on child and cry, cry, cry
We can cry together

See I done been a player
I done been played
I done been went for the some of the oldest tricks
From some of the coldest chicks God done ever made
Said I done even had a venereal disease
And didn't want to go to the clinic, all that attention embarrassing me
But over the years I've learned to understand
That I don't really give a damn what nobody say, I'm a man and we cry
We can cry, we can cry, we can cry together

Talkin' bout wo wo wo yea yea yea
They say a man ain't supposed to cry but I know, know, know
Fasho' sho', sho'
That even men go through problems sometime cry
