Jayhawks - Sister Cry lyrics

rate me

(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.
