[00:00.00]Grown Men Don't Cry - Hit Crew Masters
[00:10.73]I pulled into the shopping center
[00:12.75]And saw a little boy wrapped around the legs of his mother
[00:16.78]
[00:19.93]Like ice cream melting they embraced
[00:22.09]Years of bad decisions runnin' down her face
[00:27.01]
[00:29.34]All mornin' I'd been thinkin' my life's so hard
[00:33.00]And they wore everything they own livin' in a car
[00:37.64]
[00:38.87]I wanted to tell him it would be ok
[00:42.82]But I just got in my suburban and I drove away
[00:47.84]
[00:49.47]But I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
[00:56.23]
[00:59.14]I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
[01:04.62]
[01:07.15]Keep having this dream about my old man
[01:09.56]I'm 10 years old and he's holding my hand
[01:13.54]
[01:16.58]We're talkin' on the front porch watchin' the sun go down
[01:20.00]But it was just a dream he was a slave to his job and he couldn't be around
[01:26.43]So many things I wanna say to him
[01:30.04]But I just placed a rose on his grave and I talk to the wind
[01:35.35]
[01:36.62]But I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
[01:41.68]
[01:46.01]I don't know why they say grown men don't cry don't cry
[01:52.23]
[01:55.60]I'm sittin' here with my kids and my wife
[02:18.07]And everything that I hold dear in my life
[02:21.60]
[02:25.30]We say grace and thank the Lord
[02:27.37]Got so much to be thankful for
[02:30.10]Then it's up the stairs and off to bed and my little girl says
[02:34.30]
[02:35.74]"I haven't had my story yet "
[02:38.57]
[02:39.12]And everything weighin' on my mind disappears just like that
[02:44.88]When she lifts her head off her pillow and says
[02:47.63]
[02:49.16]"I Love You Dad"
[02:50.39]
[02:56.83]I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
[03:01.67]
[03:06.25]I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
[03:11.55]
[03:15.66]And I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
[03:20.92]
[03:25.13]I don't know why they say grown men don't cry don't cry
