Cry Baby - Janis Joplin
I know she told you,
Honey i know she told you that she loved you
Much more than i did,
But all i know is that she left you,
And you swear that you just don't know why,
But you know, honey i'll always,
I'll always be around if you ever want me
Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby,
Oh honey, welcome back home.

Don't you know, honey,
Ain't nobody ever gonna love you
The way i try to do ?
Who'll take all your pain,
Honey, your heartache, too ?
And if you need me, you know
That i'll always be around if you ever want me
Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby,
Oh daddy, like you always saying to do.

And when you walk around the world, babe,
You said you'd try to look for the end of the road,
You might find out later that the road'll end in detroit,
Honey, the road'll even end in kathmandu.
You can go all around the world
Trying to find something to do with your life, baby,
When you only gotta do one thing well,
You only gotta do one thing well to make it in this world, babe.
You got a woman waiting for you there,
All you ever gotta do is be a good man one time to one woman
And that'll be the end of the road, babe,
I know you got more tears to share, babe,
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
And cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby.

And if you ever feel a little lonely, dear,
I want you to come on, come on to your mama now,
And if you ever want a little love of a woman
Come on and baby baby baby babe babe baby now
Cry baby yeah.

I like this song. Honestly, I don't think I've heard anything like it. Janis' voice is very original and I don't think anyone should try to sing like her because it would sound bad. I hate it when people try to sing like the person singing the song sings it's their voice you can't imitate it and it makes you sound stupid. Just sing with your own original voice.

I like the lyrics it’s a classic love song (I guess) but it doesn’t sound like she’s feeling sorry for herself she’s simply saying that she’ll be there and that sometimes the best thing is right in front of you. If you are constantly looking for something new that you miss the thing, you already have. The people who are consistently there for you are better than the new exciting thing that will only be there during the good times. We are constantly looking for a new shiny item when the antique holds more value.

(I love antiques)
