96 Tears

[Verse 1]

Too many teardrops for one heart to be crying (I just can't stand it)

Too many teardrops for one heart to carry on, yes it is (I just can't stand it)

You're way on top now, baby, since you left me, yeah

And you're always laughing down at me, yes sir

But, o-o-o-oh, watch out baby, I'm gonna get there, yeah

And we'll be together in just a little while, yes we will

And we'll be gathering tears from way up here, oh yeah

[Chorus]

I want to see you cry, yeah, 96 tears, yes I do (96, it just won't do)

[Bridge]

I'll be on top, and you'll be there just looking up

I can always get up here, and I might not be waving down

[Chorus]

I want to see you cry, yeah, 96 tears, yes I do (96, it just won't do)

[Verse 2]

Ooh, try to get a hundred baby (96, it just won't do)

96 teardrops from you (96, it just won't do)

Oh oh, can you get a hundred, baby? Yeah (Can you make your tears one hundred?)

96 teardrops from you, ooo, ah, ooo, ah, ooo (Can you get a million, baby?)

Get a million, yeah, yeah (96, it just won't do)

Can you get a million tears together? (Can you make your tears one hundred?)

From 96 tears, oh baby (Can you get a million, baby?)

‘Cause baby there ain’t just won’t do (96, it just won't do)

Ooo, just won’t, ooo, do, baby (Can you make your tears one hundred?)
