Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright in the morning Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, I tell you no lie Don't cry sister cry, don't do it, don't do it When old man trouble knocks on your door Don't give him no key, he just wants more He'll turn your life to misery Kick you down, just like me
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, it'll be alright Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine
Woke downhearted and you feel so bad Somebody wants something of nothing you had Love don't come too easy, you see A little bit of you and a little bit of me
Don't cry sister cry, it'll be alright, it'll be alright Don't cry sister cry, everything'll be just fine Everything'll be just fine Everything'll be just fine Don't cry sister cry, don't do it, don't do it Don't cry sister cry, don't do it, don't do it
