Well, the medallion's back
So are the alligator shoes
And your drinks are as dry
As a saltwater cruise
Yes, I'm drifting back
To the nightclubs and the stage
And if you want to read my book
Just go to the final page
And it's a cryin' love
A cryin' love, yeah
Oh, a cryin' love, uh huh
Tears to enjoy
A cryin' love
Like a shame-faced boy
Well, it's the lawman in me
That loves honesty and truth
But it's the harlequin in you
That never knew what to do
So I'm going to come to your house
'Cause I want to see
He cannot be as good-looking as me
I'm going to win you, get you
Then we'll both sail free
Into a cryin' love, yeah
Well now, cryin' love
Alright, cryin' love, yeah
Tears to enjoy
A cryin' love
Just like a shame-faced little boy
Do you remember
That funny little dance
That funny little dance
That I used to do?
Well, I could do it for you if you want
I could run it down on the spot
I could run it, move it, cry it
Just for you
Into a cryin' love, uh huh
Yeah yeah, a cryin' love
A cryin' love, uh huh
Tears to enjoy
A cryin' love
Like a shame-faced boy
I'm gonna come to your house
'Cause I want to see
He cannot be as good-looking as me
(Impossible!)
I'm gonna win you, get you
Then we'll both sail
We're gonna sail
We're gonna sail
We're gonna sail
Into a cryin' love, yeah
A cryin' love, uh huh
A cryin' love, yeah
Into a cryin' love, uh huh
Cryin' love
Cryin' love
Cryin' love
Cryin' love
Cryin' love

Alright aright
A cryin' love yeah
Cryin' love
