Crying Over YouUB40

Released: November 17, 1998

Songwriter: Lloyd Charmers Ken Boothe

Producer: Dan Armstrong Danny Canaan UB40

Crying over you in the morning
Crying over you in the evening
Crying over you, don't know what to do
You make me feel ashamed, people say
It's all in the game, woman please let me explain
Then I know you will be mine
Everyday I pray
To have you and to hold
Now that you are here by my side
I really, really don't want to cry, cry

Crying over you in the morning
Crying over you in the evening
Crying over you, don't know what to do
You make me feel ashamed, people say
It's all in the game, woman please let me explain
Then I know you will be mine
And I will stop crying, crying over you
And I will stop sighing, sighing, don't know what to do
Dying, dying, every day
Sighing, sighing

UB40

UB40 are an English reggae and pop band, formed in December 1978 in Birmingham. The band has had more than 50 singles in the UK Singles Chart. They have been nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album four times, and in 1984 were nominated for the Brit Award for Best British Group. UB40 have sold over 70 million records. The ethnic make-up of the band’s original line-up was diverse, with musicians of English, Irish, Jamaican, Scottish and Yemeni parentage.

Their hit singles include their debut “Food for Thought”, “Red Red Wine” and “Can’t Help Falling in Love”. Both of these also topped the UK Singles Chart, as did the band’s version of “I Got You Babe”. Their two most successful albums, Labour of Love (1983) and Promises and Lies (1993), reached number one on the UK Albums Chart.

On January 24, 2008, it was announced that Ali Campbell would be leaving the group after 30 years. It was reported by some Birmingham newspapers on 13 March 2008, that Maxi Priest would be the new lead singer of UB40 and had recorded a cover of Bob Marley’s “I Shot the Sheriff” with the band.
