[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning
Tears, tears all in my eyes
Hey, hey
Yes, I woke up this morning, girl
Tears filled my eyes
It's such a lovely day
No one, no one knows how much I cry

[Verse 3]
I walked on by
Couldn't find a place to stay
Woah, I walked on by
Happy guitar
I couldn't find a place to rest my head
You heard what I said
But if I come back, baby
I believe that lots of things
Lots of things are gonna be done exactly the way you want 'em
Here comes Willy with a little sing along song

[Chorus]
Cry, cry, cry
I keep on crying
I wanna know, I wanna know how much
How much can a poor boy cry
Woah, I keep on crying
Lord, I wanna know how much can a poor man
Won't you tell me right now?
Hey, hey, don't laugh at me, woman
'Cause I'm a natural born lover man
And that has made me a very busy man
Hey, hey
I have things to do

[Outro]
Cry, cry, cry
Oh, crying
Cry, cry, cry
I keep on crying
Cry, cry, cry
Woah, baby
Cry, cry, cry
I keep on crying
And cry, cry, cry
And, baby
Cry, cry, cry
Woah, woah, baby
Oh, cry, cry, cry

The Righteous Brothers were a musical duo of Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield, hailing from Orange County, California. They were originally members of The Paramours but began performing as a duo in 1962 after breaking off from the group.

Their first hit track was “You’ve Lost That Lovin' Feelin” but they released many other hits during their career.

The duo was active through the 1960s and 70s, and after a long split, they reunited in 1981 and performed up until Hatfield’s death in 2003. In 2016, Medley reformed the group with Bucky Heard.
