Can't Blame You

Trying so hard not to cry

Since they say a man ain't supposed to cry

But these tears keep running from my eyes

I remember the day I came to the city

My children were crying, my wife was scared

She's gonna lose me to the girls in the city

To make her feel alright I said it's impossible

But I was wrong

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go ho ho

You've been keeping me here

All these years as your private lover

Letters came from home

But I never answered

Till today when I got this letter

From my little daughter saying

'Missing you daddy', it's time to go

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go ho ho

See me now, see me no more

I heard that whistle blow

I knew it's time to go

Sitting here in this train

Going so fast past the trees

I'm thinking of words to apologize

'Cause sorry ain't enough

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go ho ho
