Lyrics for Song: Baby, Stop Crying
Lyrics for Album: Street Legal
You been down to the bottom with a bad man, babe,
But you're back where you belong.
Go get me my pistol, babe,
Honey, I can't tell right from wrong.
Baby, please stop crying, stop crying, stop crying
Baby, please stop crying, stop crying, stop crying
Baby, please stop crying.
You know, I know, the sun will always shine
So baby, please stop crying 'cause it's tearing up my mind.
Go down to the river, babe,
Honey, I will meet you there.
Go down to the river, babe,
Honey, I will pay your fare.
Baby, please stop crying, stop crying, stop crying
Baby, please stop crying, stop crying, stop crying
Baby, please stop crying.
You know, I know, the sun will always shine
So baby, please stop crying 'cause it's tearing up my mind.
If you're looking for assistance, babe,
Or if you just want some company
Or if you just want a friend you can talk to,
Honey, come and see about me.
Baby, please stop crying, stop crying, stop crying
Baby, please stop crying, stop crying, stop crying
Baby, please stop crying.
You know, I know, the sun will always shine
So baby, please stop crying 'cause it's tearing up my mind.
You been hurt so many times
And I know what you're thinking of.
Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,
To see that you're madly in love.
Baby, please stop crying, stop crying, stop crying
Baby, please stop crying, stop crying, stop crying
Baby, please stop crying.
You know, I know, the sun will always shine
So baby, please stop crying 'cause it's tearing up my mind.

Baby, Stop Crying
Recorded on Bob Dylan's 1978 album Street Legal, "Baby, Stop Crying" stands as a poignant reflection on the complexities of love and the passage of time. The track features a distinctive acoustic guitar arrangement that underscores Dylan's signature introspective style, blending folk roots with a more mature, adult-oriented sound characteristic of the era. Released during a period when Dylan was actively engaging with contemporary social issues while maintaining his poetic depth, the song captures a quiet melancholy that resonates with listeners seeking emotional authenticity. It complements the broader catalogue of Street Legal, which marked a significant shift in his musical direction toward a more polished yet deeply personal aesthetic. The recording remains a testament to his ability to explore universal themes through simple, evocative instrumentation. |
