about

Cry On was written by the genius Allen Toussaint and Irma Thomas took it to the top with her interpretation but in our case the inspiration to choose it came from The Detroit Cobras.

The recording was taken meanwhile the song was arranged for the first or second time, and it was to be part of our then upcoming album "Unplugged at Bop Street" where it ended as a Bonus Track. The version included here is a different one than the one in the album.

Recorded at The Sistemines rehearsal room
Puerto de Sagunto, Valencia
March 2015

lyrics

Oh my tears
Are in vain
I just lost, lost
Lost my man
But in spite of all
The wrong he's done
I just a-cry on
I just a-cry on

But I still love him
With all my heart
Never, never baby
Said "I want to part"
But in spite of all
The wrong he's done
I just a-cry on
I just a-cry on

But maybe one day
Before long
You might decide
To come back home
But until then
I'll have no relief
You've got me livin' on
lonely street

All my tears
Are in vain
I just lost, lost
Lost my man
But in spite of all
The wrong he's done
I just a-cry on
I just a-cry on
