Don't Cry Blue

DON’T CRY BLUE
(Malcolm McKinney)

Jonathan Edwards

I heard them engines runnin’
On the road away from home.
Sound like thunder callin’ out my name.
Well I listened hard the first time
That I heard ’em roll along.
I listened and I’d never been the same.

Well, don’t cry, cry, Blue,
‘Cause I’m comin’ home to you.
Well, I walked with you this mornin’
And I’ll sleep with you tonight.
Don’t cry, cry, Blue.

A highway’s just a two lane road
Connecting either way.
Oh, I’ve seen enough of this end for awhile.
But I’ve got to go the distance
Till I know I’ve seen a change.
I’ve got to know the feel of every mile.

Well, don’t cry, cry, Blue,
‘Cause I’m comin’ home to you.
Well, I walked with you this mornin’
And I’ll sleep with you tonight.
Don’t cry, cry, Blue.

Don’t cry, cry, Blue.
‘Cause I’m comin’ home to you.
Well, I walked with you this mornin’
And I’ll sleep with you tonight.
Don’t cry, cry, Blue.

When my head is achin’
Full of everywhere I’ve been.
Oh, I’ve turned my face around the other way.
Well, I’ll meet you at the mailbox,
Read you all my cards.
Tell you what I really meant to say.

Well, don’t cry, cry, Blue.
‘Cause I’m comin’ home to you.
Well, I walked with you this mornin’
And I’ll sleep with you tonight.
Don’t cry, cry, Blue.
Well, don’t cry, cry, Blue, don’t cry
