Ain't Life a Crying Shame

I'm tied to someone that's true

And yet I love another too

Oh, ain't life a cryin' shame

I hate to hurt them either one

I want 'em both, can't have but one

Oh-o-o, ain't life a cryin' shame



I wish I knew which way to turn

Which lovelight should I let burn

Makes no difference how I choose

I can't win, I'll only lose

Bound to break somebody's heart

Tear somebody's world apart

Oh-o-o, ain't life a cryin' shame



I wish I knew which way to turn

Which lovelight should I let burn

Makes no difference how I choose

I can't win, I'll only lose

Bound to break somebody's heart

Tear somebody's world apart

Oh-o-o, ain't life a cryin' shame
