Sister Cry Lyrics

    (louris, olson) pedal blue music/warner-tamerlane publishing corp. bmi

    Sister cry, what you needed
    Bought yourself things you could not use
    Could be some man will come along and claim you
    Could be you'll wind up in another town.

    Sister cry, count the stars.
    Is many in the sky that passed you by.
    Could be up ahead you'll be seeing changes.
    Somehow changes made won't belong to you.

    Chorus:
    Someone come along and carry you down
    And you called my name
    I was so hungry then
    Someone come along and carry you down
    You could not see you
    Someone come along and lay you down
    And you don't talk at all
    It's the hardest way
    Someone come along and carry you down

    Sister cry, been mistreated.
    Doesn't mean someone won't let you in.
    Could be some man will come along and claim you
    Could be you'll wind up in another down

    This devil's knocking at your door
    But i could lead them all astray
    Just don't matter what people say

    (chorus)

    Sister cry, count the stars.
    Is many in the sky that passed you by.
    Could be up ahead you'll be seeing changes.
    Somehow changes made won't belong to you.
    Could be up ahead you'll be seeing changes.
    Somehow changes made won't belong to you.
