Took It Like A Man, Cried Like A Baby – Vern Gosdin

The woman was kind to reveal her deception Lately there’d been someone new A man’s got his pride and I’m no exception I lied when I told her that I had too
And I took it like a man and cried like a baby While she was here I stood tall and strong Now my knees are weak and my tears are rolling I’m hurtin’ bad cause now she’s gone
Well making it easy was my sole intention I could see she was torn apart With that in mind I neglected to mention Just how badly she broke my heart
And I took it like a man and cried like a baby While she was here I stood tall and strong Now my knees are weak and my tears are rolling I’m hurtin’ bad cause now she’s gone
They say that the ultimate act of a lover Is to think of the other and not yourself As long as she’s happy then nothing else matters Too bad she’s happy with someone else
And I took it like a man and cried like a baby While she was here I stood tall and strong Now my knees are weak and my tears are rolling I’m hurtin’ bad cause now she’s gone
