Don't Cry on Your Birthday
Lyrics
Don't cry little girl, don't cry
I'm not here to tell you goodbye,
If you don't ever leave me you won't hear me say
Goodbye little girl, goodbye.
We could run away to Mexico
or we could see the lights on the boardwalk.
I could maybe sing alone with the radio
but I won't sing the parts out of order
If you want you could lay in bed until the sun goes down,
And you know about the stars over Broadway
And you know I could give you cheer when the lights go out
But I can't feel my way in the darkness.
C: Don't cry on your birthday,
My tank is full,
I'll bring (drive) you to your party
Just like I said I would.
Don't cry on your birthday,
If you're waiting (driving) in the car.
We're still a little early
And we haven't come that far.
You could make me drive around in an evening gown
or we could have the party in a Bronco
and I would stay alone at night because the ____ is gone
but you know all that walking makes me crazy.
And I've been all around the world a thousand times,
And I've been out fishing with my Honda
And don't cry when you see another year go by
Cause you know I'm not getting any older.
I'm not here to tell you goodbye,
If you don't ever leave me you won't hear me say
Goodbye little girl, goodbye.
We could run away to Mexico
or we could see the lights on the boardwalk.
I could maybe sing alone with the radio
but I won't sing the parts out of order
If you want you could lay in bed until the sun goes down,
And you know about the stars over Broadway
And you know I could give you cheer when the lights go out
But I can't feel my way in the darkness.
C: Don't cry on your birthday,
My tank is full,
I'll bring (drive) you to your party
Just like I said I would.
Don't cry on your birthday,
If you're waiting (driving) in the car.
We're still a little early
And we haven't come that far.
You could make me drive around in an evening gown
or we could have the party in a Bronco
and I would stay alone at night because the ____ is gone
but you know all that walking makes me crazy.
And I've been all around the world a thousand times,
And I've been out fishing with my Honda
And don't cry when you see another year go by
Cause you know I'm not getting any older.
