All I Can Do Is Cry Lyrics

I left my gal in Kansas City,
Left her cryin' in the rain,
I told her that I made my mind up,
I didn't want to see her again.
What makes the night so lonely?
What makes the night so long?
Why I guess its just because I'm a man,
That's done a good woman wrong.
I can't eat...
I can't sleep....
All I can do is cry.
All I can do is cry.
I told her that she was a driver,
Told her that she played around,
But I was just a lying man,
Tryin' to hide the tracks she had found.
Gonna catch myself a flyer,
One that's Kansas City bound,
I'm goin' lookin' for my baby,
Good lord I hope she's still around.
I can't eat
I can't sleep
All I can do is cry
All I can do is cry
I can't eat
I can't sleep
All I can do is cry
All I can do is cry

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
