Together we
cry
Together we cry
Together
Together we cry
Jenny was a poor girl
living in a rich world
Named her baby Hope when she
was just fourteen
She was hoping for a better world
for this little girl
But the apple doesn't fall
too far from the tree
When she gets there and calls,
Hope's too far gone
Her baby's on the way
with nothing left inside
Together we cry
What about the John Wayne?
Could've gone the whole way
Tighten up the stage, tryna get a deal
Now he's lighting up
the wrong way
Something for the pain
Man, you wanna see this kid,
he was so f***ing unreal
When he gets that call,
he's too far gone
Can't get it together to sing one song
They won't hear tonight
The words of a lullaby
Together we cry
Together we cry
Oh Mary's ambition,
she wanna be a politician
She's been dreaming about it
since she was a girl
She thought that she'd be the one
who could change the world
Always trying to pave the way
for women in a man's world
Life happened, house, kids, two cars
Husband hits the jaw,
checks and don't go very far
Now, now she ain't making changes
She keeps her mind on her wages,
the only rattle in cages
Together we cry
Together we cry
There's so much sad gonna
flood the ocean
We're all in tears for a world
that's broken
Together we cry
There comes a time
when every bird has to fly
At some point, every rose has to die
It's hard to let your children go,
leave home where they go
Who knows, getting drunk
and stoned all alone
Teach your man to fish
and feed him ever live
You show your kids the truth,
hope they never lie
Instead of reading in a letter,
then they got me something
better
Bet you're sorry now,
I won't be coming home tonight
I'm sick of looking for those
heroes in the sky
To teach us how to fly,
together we cry
Together we cry
Together we cry
There's so much sadness
above the ocean
For all the tears
from a world that's broken
Together we cry
Together we cry
Together we cry
Togeth er we cry
