Nobody's Crying But The Baby

With her little one in one arm

And the laundry in the other

She could sure use a helping hand

But thats just the life of a single mother

Somebody's calling on the phone

Somebody's knocking at the door

She forgets and burns the dinner

Throws it across the kitchen floor

And for a moment she wants to give up and break down

But nobody's crying but the baby

She ain't far from going crazy

And there are times she wonders how she's going to make it

But she's got to be strong enough for two

She's gotta do what he wouldn't do

No time for tears around here

Nobody's crying but the baby

And when the day is done

She'll tuck her angel in

She'll turn out the lights and start missing him again

Her mascara slowly runs down her face

But nobody's crying but the baby

She ain't far from going crazy

And there are times she wonders how she's going to make it

But she's got to be strong enough for two

She's gotta do what he wouldn't do

No time for tears around here

Nobody's crying

But the baby is getting older

The lonely nights are getting colder

And what she wouldn't give to have a shoulder to cry on

But she's got to be strong enough for two

She's gotta do what he wouldn't do

No time for tears around here

Nobody's crying but the baby
