Lyrics

[Verse 1] Mother forgive me I felt this was the right time to fly the nest Didn't mean to hurt you It's hard to get by, I'm doing my best Mama, we both know There's a few things we've left and said now Distance reminds me when I was your little boy Now I'm crying in my bed [Chorus] If I could make it by now (I won't) Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't) Your son is shining bright now They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more [Verse 2] How is the old man? Hope he has quit smoking big cigars Tell him I miss him Tell him it wasn't me who broke his car Mama, don't dismay I found a good girl and we're making plans Now this is a new revolution, spreading the message Now your boy turned into a man [Chorus] If I could make it by now (I won't) Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't) Your son is shining bright now They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more If I could make it by now (I won't) Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't) Your son is shining bright now They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more [Bridge] I cry no more, I'm movin' on I cry no more, I'm movin' on I cry no more, I'm movin' on I cry no more [Chorus] If I could make it by now (I won't) Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't) Your son is shining bright now They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more If I could make it by now (I won't) Would I make you believe, yeah? (I won't) Your son is shining bright now They say boys don't cry, mama, I ain't crying no more [Outro] I cry no more, I'm movin' on (No, no, no) I cry no more, I'm movin' (I'm done in crying, mama, yeah, yeah) I cry no more, I'm movin' on (Crying no more) I cry no more (No, no, no)
