(Dolly Parton)
Mama didn't always had those tears in her eyes
And daddy once was able to hold his head up high
But now I've brought disgrace to my whole family
Now they cry but I'm not worth the tears they cry for me.
I've loved a boy and then I found that he just led me on
So in my hurt and bitterness I let myself go wrong
But all I did was hurt myself and shame my family
Now they cry but I'm not worth the tears they cry for me.
No I'm not worth the salt in one tiny tear
Oh why have I brought shame to the ones I love so dear
I'm so sorry that I've hurt them but they'll never know how sorry
Now they cry but I'm not worth the tears they cry for me.
Yes, now they cry but I'm not worth the tears they cry for me.
Mama didn't always had those tears in her eyes
And daddy once was able to hold his head up high
But now I've brought disgrace to my whole family
Now they cry but I'm not worth the tears they cry for me.
I've loved a boy and then I found that he just led me on
So in my hurt and bitterness I let myself go wrong
But all I did was hurt myself and shame my family
Now they cry but I'm not worth the tears they cry for me.
No I'm not worth the salt in one tiny tear
Oh why have I brought shame to the ones I love so dear
I'm so sorry that I've hurt them but they'll never know how sorry
Now they cry but I'm not worth the tears they cry for me.
Yes, now they cry but I'm not worth the tears they cry for me.
