 24807>Well I know you got your troubles
 
 But I've got problems of my own
 
 It's all relative you see, what happiness should be
 
 And we got to work it out alone.
 
 I know about your situation
 
 And I know all about your pain
 
 But you know it's true though it's no comfort to you
 
 Into each life must fall some rain
 
 
 
 We all have our cross to bear.
 
 We all walk in darkness sometimes.
 
 Though I know it don't seem fair,
 
 We all have our cross to bear.
 
 
 
 You know I hate to see you cry
 
 I hate to see you cry now
 
 Because I had my share of tears
 
 And though it may sound cool
 
 you know I'd be a fool to let it slide a few more years.
 
 Listen, I just got to have my freedom
 
 And if that's giving you the blues
 
 That's the price you pay, Lord, there ain't no other way
 
 
 
 But to get down on your knees and pay your dues
 
 'Cause don't you know...
 
 
 
 We all have our cross to bear
 
 We all knuckle under sometimes
 
 Oh, everybody gets his share
 
 We all have our cross to bear
 
 
 
 Oh, I just got to have my freedom
 
 And if that's giving you the blues
 
 Well, that's the price you pay, Lord,
 
 There ain't no other way
 
 But to get down on your knees and pay your dues
 
 'Cause don't you know...
 
 
 
 We all have our cross to bear
 
 We all walk in darkness sometimes
 
 Oh, everybody gets his share, mmm,
 
 ''cause we all have our cross to bear
