Why

by Lloyd Price

Lloyd Price (born March 9, 1933) is an American R&B vocalist. Known as "Mr. Personality", after the name of one of his biggest million-selling hits. His first recording, "Lawdy Miss Clawdy" was a huge hit on Specialty Records in 1952, and although he continued to turn out records, none were as popular until several years later, when he refined the New Orleans beat and achieved a series of national hits. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998.




Why do I cry? Why do I sigh?
Why, oh baby, tell me why
Why do you stray?
Just go night and day
Why, oh baby, tell me why?

Please hear my plea
Bring it on home to me
So tired of misery

Cryin' like a child
Oh, tears runnin' wild
But I won't worry I know
Things will change somehow

Goodbye, is what I'll say
Hope to meet again someday
But right now, babe, little girl
I'm on my way
