[Verse 1]
A tear fell this morning
As i thought of the good old days I've had
Somebody tell me
I've got to know, is this the end?
Cause i've lost everything
I have no friends

[Chorus]
But it's no use crying, now now
No use crying
No use crying

[Verse 2]
When i was young
And things were going my way
Had I thought of the future
I would not be in this shape today
Somebody please tell me
I've got to know, is this the end?
Cause i've lost everything
I have no friends

[Chorus]
I'm trying to tell you it's no use crying, now now
No use crying
No use crying

[Verse 3]
So people, don't be no sleepers
Take my advice
Opportunity never knocks twice
Here today
Tomorrow it's gone away
And then you've lost everything
And you have no friends

[Chorus]
But it's no use crying, now now
No use crying
No use crying
