I Hope [You Never Cry Again]

I hope some rain falls on
Bill Buchanan's cotton crop
And I hope when the ground is good
And wet and the cotton's good and
Green the rain will stop
And I hope the time will come when all
The hate in this ole world'll end
But most of all I hope you never cry again

I hope that ole Miss Haley's
Broken hip gets well OK
And I hope she can set out more azaleas
And I hope she's right when she says
She may buy her a Lemay
And I hope that someday I can turn
Ole Johnny Mills into a friend
But most of all I hope you never cry again

Cause I know why you cry and
Why you never sing a song
You cry because I'm always
Doin' somethin' wrong
I want my way but I'm tryin'
Hard to learn how to bend
That's why I hope you never cry again

I hope that all little leaguers
Sometime get to play
And I hope that all children learn to go
To the meadow and pick their
Moms a big bouquet
And I hope that ev'rybody gets out
Of the trouble they get in
But most of all I hope you never cry again

Cause I know why you cry and
Why you never sing a song
You cry because I'm always
Doin' somethin' wrong
I want my way but I'm tryin'
Hard to learn how to bend
That's why I hope you never cry again
