Easy to Cry Songtext
von Rick Springfield

Mother said that the tears of a woman
Were never meant to be shared by a man
I was taught that the man was a survivor
Shelter woman and to give her what he can
That′s the way of the world, Mama said
And the woman loved the man til she died
Though life will share both the joy and the pain
My son, woman was the only one that cried

That's what mother said
That′s what mother said
My Mama never lied

Cause it's easy to cry when your woman's gone
And it′s easy to cry from the pain
But it′s easy to learn from your first mistake
And I ain't gonna do it again

Mama said there are hardships a comin′
Man and woman carry them through the years
She said the strength of the man's in the sweat of his brows
The power of the woman′s in her tears


That's the way of the world, Mama said
And the woman loved the man, though he lied
But I learned in the light of the cold world
The woman′s not the only one that cries
I know Mama lied, I know
I know that Mama lied

Cause it's easy to cry when your woman's gone
It′s easy to cry from the pain
But it′s easy to learn from your first mistake
And I ain't gonna do it again

It′s easy to cry, easy to cry
It's easy to cry, easy to cry
Well it′s easy to cry, easy to cry
Well it's easy to cry, easy to cry

It′s easy to cry when your woman's gone
And it's easy to cry from the pain
And it′s easy to learn from your first mistake
And I ain′t gonna do it again

And it's easy to cry, easy to cry
And it′s easy to cry, easy to cry
And it's easy to cry, easy to cry
And it′s easy to cry, easy to cry
And it's easy to cry, easy to cry
Yea it′s easy to cry, easy to cry
Oh it's easy to cry, easy to cry
