I Can’t Keep From Cryin’ Sometimes

Al Kooper

[Intro]
This is a big, uh, Blues Project song
But in the tradition of uh, Bob Dylan and Van Morrison, I've completely changed the arrangement 'cause I'm sick of playing it the way we used to play it
So, this is a new arrangement
But it's also educational because, this shows you where I stole the song from
One, two, three and then

[Chorus]
I can't keep from cryin' sometimes
Oh, I can't keep from cryin' sometimes
Oh, mama, dead and gone
And I, I'm all alone
I can't keep from cryin' sometimes

[Verse 1]
Early in the mornin', about the break of day
I fall down on my knees, fall down and I pray
Think about my woman, my woman who's all gone
And I can't keep from cryin' sometimes

[Chorus]
Lord have mercy, I can't keep from cryin' sometimes
Oh, mama dead and gone
And I, I'm all alone
I can't keep from cryin' sometimes

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Late time in the evenin', I watch the sun go down
I think about my woman, but my woman love, she ain't around
My heart is filled with sadness and my eyes are filled with tears
I can't keep from cryin' sometimes

[Chorus]
Now, I can't keep from cryin' sometimes
Oh, mama, dead and gone
And I, I'm all alone
I can't keep from cryin' sometimes
Oh, I can't keep from cryin' sometimes
Said, I can't keep from cryin' sometimes
