Drown in My Own Tears Songtext
von Joe South

It brings a tear whoa, to my eyes
Every time I begin to realize
I cry so much, baby
Since you′ve been gone
Oh, I believe I'm gonna drown
Drown in my own tears, now

I sit and cry
Just like a child
Whoa, my pourin′ tears
They're runnin' wild
And if you don′t say, baby
Say that you′ll be home soon
Lord, have mercy
I believe I'm gonna drown
Whoa yeah, in my own tears
Yes, I will


I know it′s true
Into each life
Yes, some rain
A little rain has got to fall
Ooh, I'm so blue
Babe, without you
It keeps rainin′
More and more and more and more and more and more

And now why can't you
Come on home, child?
′Cause I'm tired
So tired of being all alone
And if you don't say, baby
That you′ll be home soon

I believe I′m gonna (Drown in my own tears)
Sing it one more time (Drown in my own tears)
Oh, you sound so fine tonight, children (Drown in my own tears)
Whoa-oo, whoa-oo, yes (Drown in my own tears)
I'm gonna drown (Drown in my own tears)
Nobody wants to have to die (Drown in my own tears)
Whoa-oo, whoa-oo, yes (Drown in my own tears)
I believe I′m gonna drown (Drown in my own tears)
Whoa-oo, Lord
Drown whoa drown in my own tears
Whoa, yeah
