Bobby Bland - Sometimes You Gotta Cry A Little

Sometimes You Gotta Cry A Little

All right

[CHORUS]
Sometimes you gotta love a little
Sometimes you gotta lie a little
Sometimes you gotta laugh a little
Sometimes you gotta cry a little

When I was very young
My mother said to me
This world that we live in
Is so funny

One day, victory
One day, defeat
You gotta be a man to take
The bitter with the sweet

Cause sometimes

[Repeat CHORUS]

The further down the road
As I grew up
I met a little girl
And I fell in love

I thought I had her
Love all to myself
Until I found there
Was someone else
Said, I know

[Repeat CHORUS]

Now, it's all over
I forgot that girl
I think that I'm ready
To face the world

One day, victory
One day, defeat
Now I can take the
Bitter with the sweet
Cause sometimes

[Repeat CHORUS]
