Lyrics for Song: Too Late To Cry (1963)
Lyrics for Album: Lonnie Johnson Blues Masters [1991]
Too late to cry baby, your last chance is gone.
Too late to cry baby, your best man is gone.
You been so mean and evil, that you should be left alone.
I tried for so many years, but I just can't please your mind.
Tried for so many years, but I just can't please your mind.
I found out you not in love with me, it's been somebody else all the time.
Well, you can't keep me baby, and chase every man in town.
Well, you can't keep it baby, and chase every man in town.
You either gonna get me in a world of trouble, or you'll end up in six feet of ground.
Tell her! [spoken words – Otis Spann]
Well, I want a woman I can love, tell the whole round world she's mine.
Well, I want a woman I can love, tell the whole round world she's mine.
I found out being in love with you, is just a waste of time.
Well, it was three o'clock in the mornin', when my baby staggered in the door.
That did it! [spoken words – Lonnie Johnson]
Yes, it was three o'clock in the mornin', when my baby staggered in the door.
I said, "Go right back where you stayed last night, don't need daddy's love any more."
