Mississippi Delta City Blues Lyrics

    I've got a smile
    That i put on
    When i'm not at home
    When i'm not alone

    But it is so hard
    To make that smile
    'cause i know i'll be at home
    And alone in a while
    And if i look in a mirror
    I see my eyes start to tear
    I can't help but cry
    Since you said goodbye

    I've got to hide
    Whhat i'm feelin' inside
    Can't let them see
    How you're hurtin' me

    So i guess that's what i'll do
    Won't let them see through
    Won't let them know
    That you could hurt me so

    I've got a laugh
    That i put on
    When i'm not at home
    When i'm not alone

    But it is so hard
    To fake that laugh
    When my insides are cryin'
    And my heart's torn in half
    And all the music i hear
    And things i valued so dear
    Make me feel so blue
    They all remind me of you

    (now) what can i do
    (now) that our love is through
    And my purpose is gone
    Still i got to live on
    I guess that's what i'll do
    I won't let them see through
    I won't let them know
    That you could hurt me so
