Somebody Crying

Marshall Crenshaw


Right, no warning. None at all 
Just the word, "goodbye," written backwards 
on the wall 
Now my anger is in overdrive 
so down the road I'm bound 'til I track you down 
dead or alive 
I heard somebody crying and the sky turned black and grey 
Say, Miss Lady, where are you today? 
Call me Daddy Rolling Stone 
as I make my way down the back roads all alone 
Why did you do it? I don't care! 
I won't end this ride 'till you're by my side, 
This I swear 
I heard somebody crying and the sun's dropping out of sight 
Say, Miss Lady, where are you tonight?
