Good Ol' Boys Don't Cry Lyrics

I feel it building up inside

You wouldn't even know it

I don't really sleep at night

But I'm not gonna show it

I had to be a man

Before I could stand on my own two feet

The person that I am

I don't understand who he's supposed to be

Cuz good ol' boys don't cry

They keep it all inside

I don't wanna let you down

Though I feel like I'm falling

So I'll carry the weight around

Like a broken heart calling

To learn to be a man

The best that I can for my family

The person that I am

Might not always be who he's supposed to be

Cuz good ol' boys don't cry

They keep it all inside

When's it gonna be okay to feel that way

When the pain's too hard to hide

If good ol' boys don't cry

So don't cry

I've got a son of my own

I watch him as he grows

To the man he's gonna be

When I look him in the eyes

Finally I see that he's just like me

And I realize

That good ol' boys are gonna cry

That good ol' boys are gonna cry

Yeah good ol' boys are gonna cry

Don't hold it all inside

It's gonna be okay to feel that way

Son you don't have hide

Cause good ol' boys can cry

So go on and cry

It's gonna be alright
