 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.
 (Sax Break:
 
 
  )
 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.
