Draggin’ around the sins of your father
Handed on down from one to another
Spinning your wheels from lover to lover
Afraid to come out from under the covers
When the world’s on your shoulders
And you just feel like hiding
When there’s nowhere to run to
You can come cryin’ come cryin’ to me
You know how to fly on the wings of disaster
You try to stand still but you keep going faster and faster
You thought it’d be easier in California
The tables will turn and they won’t even warn ya
When the world’s on your shoulders
And you just keep on sliding
When there’s nowhere to run to
You can come cryin’ come cryin’ to me
When the night seems colder
But the sun’s gonna shine
I won’t leave you behind
No you won’t stay behind
When the world’s on your shoulders
And you can’t keep from fighting
When there’s nowhere to run to
You can come cryin’
When the world’s on your shoulders
And you can’t keep from hiding
When there’s nowhere to run to
You can come cryin’ come cryin’ to me
Come cryin’ to me
When the world’s on your shoulders
Come cryin’ to me
When you just feel like hiding
You can come cryin’ come cryin’ to me
Come cryin’ to me come cryin’ to me
