Laughin' Cryin' Blues

Have you seen the sunshine smiling through the rain?
Just the same, I’m smiling, though my heart’s in pain
It’s because my sweet daddy has turned his back on me
Though I smile, I’m almost dying for his company
When I laugh, ha ha ha ha ha!
There’s no use to fool you
Because I want to cry, boo hoo hoo, and
What’s more beside it, I fail to hide it
When sweet thoughts come to me
'Bout how nice he’d do me
They go all through me
That’s why I’m blue
Though I laugh, ha ha ha ha ha!
I cannot but moan to be all alone to cry
Boo hoo hoo, oh!
My cup is tilted because I’m jilted
But I’d laugh and cry with
I’d as soon to die with
These awful laughin', cryin' blues
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Boo hoo hoo hoo!
Oh oh, oh oh, hoo oh oh!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha, oh oh!
Though I laugh, ha ha ha ha ha!
I cannot but moan to be all alone to cry
Boo hoo hoo, oh!
My cup is tilted because I’m jilted
Since I laugh and cry with
I’d as soon to die with
These awful laughin', cryin' blues
Boo hoo hoo hoo!
