Rick Springfield - Easy to Cry lyrics

Mother said that the tears of a woman Were never meant to be shared by a man I was taught that the man was a survivor Shelter woman and to give her what he can That's the way of the world, Mama said And the woman loved the man til she died Though life will share both the joy and the pain My son, woman was the only one that cried That's what mother said That's what mother said My Mama never lied Cause it's easy to cry when your woman's gone And it's easy to cry from the pain But it's easy to learn from your first mistake And I ain't gonna do it again Mama said there are hardships a comin' Man and woman carry them through the years She said the strength of the man's in the sweat of his brows The power of the woman's in her tears That's the way of the world, Mama said And the woman loved the man, though he lied But I learned in the light of the cold world The woman's not the only one that cries I know Mama lied, I know I know that Mama lied Cause it's easy to cry when your woman's gone It's easy to cry from the pain But it's easy to learn from your first mistake And I ain't gonna do it again It's easy to cry, easy to cry It's easy to cry, easy to cry Well it's easy to cry, easy to cry Well it's easy to cry, easy to cry It's easy to cry when your woman's gone And it's easy to cry from the pain And it's easy to learn from your first mistake And I ain't gonna do it again And it's easy to cry, easy to cry And it's easy to cry, easy to cry And it's easy to cry, easy to cry And it's easy to cry, easy to cry And it's easy to cry, easy to cry Yea it's easy to cry, easy to cry Oh it's easy to cry, easy to cry
