There was a little boy I had planned to marry
This was my love; I didn’t want to share it I thought that love would make my life bright and sunny
Said he couldn’t love me 'cause he didn’t have no money
So, everyday I have to cry some
Everyday I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Everyday I have to cry
Had me a boy
I guess I really loved him
Every night now I was thinking of him
But you can’t mix love with money
'Cause if you do it’s gonna hurt somebody
So, everyday I have to cry some
Everyday I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Everyday I have to cry
Although I know that he’s just a poor man
Is it wrong to love 'cause he’s not a rich man?
Every time you mix love with money
Every time you hurt somebody
So, everyday I have to cry some
Everyday I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Everyday I have to cry
