about

This song was written after Bob drove around the devastation in New Orleans in October 2005 with members of Elvis Costello's backing band.

lyrics

I drive around and start to break out in a sweat
They say we’re coming back but nothing's happened yet
If I squint real hard I can make me forget
But Sometimes I Just Wanna Cry

Our story gets less and less out there in the news
I don't know how much more we got left to lose
I get away from it all by singing these blues
But Sometimes I Just Wanna Cry

Days they slip away, they just drift away
I spend a lot of my time doing nothing
I know it’s gonna get bad before its gets real good
I would turn the clock back if I only could

Days they slip away, they just drift away
I spend a lot of my time doing nothing
I know it’s gonna get bad before its gets real good
There's still a lot of people that ain't back in my neighborhood

They say we’re in recovery so I'll just wait and see
They’re doing a lot of planning, I’ve been to two or three
I hope that you will stay (and be) here with me
Cos' Sometimes I Just Wanna Cry
