The Dusty Chaps Band consists of me, myself & I and hired hands kind enough to help me out with their talent on my demos.
Another home recording. A couple of tracks via internet on a fee for service basis. I actually consider this a Neo-Traditional song genre wise. Hope this song is enjoyed and thanks for the listen. Jim

Cry Myself To Sleep- copyright 2009 Jim Durall
Verse 1
My baby did some talkin', then she started walkin'
I never thought she'd do that sort of thing
She said I had it comin', over this & that or somethin'
Said she had another place, to park her feet
Oh my baby left me cryin', cryin' like a baby
Told me I could cry myself to sleep
Verse 2
It's a wonder I ain't dyin', from an overdose of cryin'
Or the empties on the table next to me
I never heard the sirens or the warning's she'd be flyin'
To another nest, another tree
My baby left me cryin', cryin' like a baby
Told me I could cry myself to sleep
Bridge
Look at them clouds, they're as happy as can be
They couldn't care less if it rains on me
Look at my baby walkin' on clouds
All I can do is cry and pout
My baby left me cryin', cryin' like a baby
Told me I could cry myself to sleep
Instr-verse/bridge
Verse 3
My baby wasn't lyin' when she told me I'd be cryin'
She always had the last word anyway
I wasn't even tryin' to keep myself from cryin'
When she turned around and walked away
My baby left me cryin', cryin' like baby
Told me I could cry myself to sleep
Repeat Bridge
