Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes

Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
When my heart's full of sorrow and my eyes are filled
with tears
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes

My mother often told me, angels bonded your life away
She said I would [bad word]  but [bad word] in God and pray
I'm on the King's Highway, I'm travelin' everyday

'Cause I just can't keep from crying sometimes
Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
When my heart's full of sorrow and my eyes are filled
with tears
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes

My mother, she's in glory, thank God I'm on my way
Father, he's gone too, and sister she could not stay
I'm [bad word] Him everyday, to bear my burdens away

'Cause I just can't keep from crying sometimes
Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
When my heart's full of sorrow and my eyes are filled
with tears
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes

I thought when she first left me, I'd pray4 for a
little while
Soon it all would be over, and I'd journey on with a
smile
But the thought as I get older, I think of what I told
her

And I just can't keep from crying sometimes
Well, I just can't keep from crying sometimes
When my heart's full of sorrow and my eyes are filled
with tears
Lord, I just can't keep from crying sometimes

Well, well
