Lyrics Cryin' Smile - Joey + Rory

Got her daddy′s eyes and her mama's hair
That newborn baby lyin′ there
A grandpa holds his first grandchild
That's a cryin' smile

In another town there′s a long white dress
Little church crammed full to Sunday best
Bride′s father walks her down the aisle
That's a cryin′ smile

It's a goodbye kiss, first day of school
A doctor callin′ with them good news
A sinner standin' in a pew
Getting born for the second time

It′s snapshots laid out on the floor
Or a loved one back home from the war
Makes tears fall like rain from a sunny sky
That's a cryin' smile

Forty years he punched that clock
For a pat on the back and a gold watch
They called it going out in style
That′s a cryin′ smile

It's a goodbye kiss, first day of school
A doctor callin′ with them good news
A sinner standin' in a pew
Getting born for the second time

It′s snapshots laid out on the floor
Or a loved one back home from the war
Makes tears fall like rain from a sunny sky
That's a cryin′ smile

A nursin' home has an empty bed
Four generations bow their heads
God welcomes home another child
Ain't that a cryin′ smile?
