i experienced the late night sounds of KAAY out of Little Rock Arkansas when i was around 14 or 15.This song was played always by a group called Deepwater Reunion and i think it burned in my brain.I got Tommy to try and learn it,so we went through it twice and hit the RED button on the third time around.I think we're gonna try and do it better soon.

Cindy's crying

Cindy's crying but it aint no use
She got a habit and she can't break loose
Stoppin' each n every man she meets
Gonna be hooker on Bleecker Street
On Bleecker Street,honey makes ya feel like cryin'
You say ya gonna leave it but ya aint even tryin'
You say you're livin' i can see ya dyin'

Police stopped Cindy on the streets today
She was holdin' so they took her away
Threw her in jail and they made her wait
She was cryin' oh Jesus let me just get straight
Let me just get straight,honey can't ya see i'm cryin'
I know you can make it but you'd better start tryin'
You say you're livin' i can see ya dyin'

Now Cindy loves me but she has to go
Down to the corner in the wind and snow
Standin' on the corner while the rain comes down
Down on the corner till the man comes 'round
Till the man comes 'round,honey can't ya see i'm cryin'
You say ya gonna leave it but ya aint even tryin'
You say you're livin' i can see ya dyin'

Cindy Cindy what ya gonna do
Ya got no money and you're way past due
Got every last penny that i had
The man is restless and your credit is bad
Your credit's bad,honey can't ya see i'm cryin'
I know you can make it but ya better start tryin'
You say you're livin' i can see ya dyin'

Now Cindy went south and she took the cure
This time honey i'm straight for sure
Went to the corner to the grocery store
Gone ten minutes and i know ya scored
I know you scored,honey can't ya see i'm cryin
You say you're gonna leave it but ya aint even tryin'
You say you're livin' i can see ya dyin'

repeat 1st verse
