Cry man why don't
you, let your tears
pour. No one to stop
you, no one to stop
you. Let your tears
pool, man, let your
tears river, no one to
care. My woman
has left me, walked
over the grass, down
to the corner her
words blew past: loved
you, you tromped on
me; loved you, you
left: loved you, you
traded me for all the
rest. Me, for the
thump of the
dice on the stone; for
the slipper a card
deck you left me
alone; for clatter
piano, for dazzle
bright brass. Now I'll
do the leavin, I'm
getting out fast. Washed
me my last shirt ironed
purely like new, stood
your shoes ready, set
your hot food. Now
you're a big man, doesn't
need me. Now you're
a growed man: I set you free.
