Lyrics Bobby "Blue" Bland

Bobby "Blue" Bland

Sometimes You Gotta Cry A Little

Sometimes you gotta love a little

Sometimes you gotta lie a little

Sometimes you gotta laugh a little

Sometimes you gotta cry a little

When I was very young, my mother said to me

This world that we live in is so funny

One day, victory, one day, defeat

You gotta be a man to take the bitter with the sweet

'Cause sometimes

Sometimes you gotta love a little

Sometimes you gotta lie a little

Sometimes you gotta laugh a little

Sometimes you gotta cry a little

The further down the road as I grew up

I met a little girl and I fell in love

I thought I had her love all to myself

Until I found there was someone else

Said, I know

Sometimes you gotta love a little

Sometimes you gotta lie a little

Sometimes you gotta laugh a little

Sometimes you gotta cry a little

Now, it's all over, I forgot that girl

I think that I'm ready to face the world

One day, victory, one day, defeat

Now I can take the bitter with the sweet

'Cause sometimes

Sometimes you gotta love a little

Sometimes you gotta lie a little

Sometimes you gotta laugh a little

Sometimes you gotta cry a little
