He said he had to work so I went to the show alone
They turn out the lights and turn the projector on
And just as the news of the world started to begin
I saw my darling and my best friend walk in

As I was sitting where they didn’t see
And so they say right down in front of me
When he kissed her lips I almost died
And in the middle of the color cartoon I started to cry

Oh, oh, oh, sad movies always make me cry
Oh, oh, oh, sad movies always make me cry

So I got up and slowly walked on home
Mama saw the tears and said, “What’s wrong?”
And so to keep from telling her a lie
I just said, “Sad movies make me cry”

Oh, oh, oh, sad movies always make me cry
Oh, oh, oh, sad movies always make me cry

So I got up and slowly walked on home
My mama saw the tears and said, “What’s wrong?”
And so to keep from telling her a lie
I just said, “Sad movies make me cry”

Oh, oh, oh, sad movies always make me cry
Oh, oh, oh, sad movies always make me cry
Oh, oh, oh, sad movies always make me cry
Oh, oh, oh, sad movies always make me cry
Oh, oh, oh, sad movies
