C         F7
My guy is,  really something
     G7             C
he's,  sensitive and shy
C         F7
My guy is,  such a bumpkin,
  B7                             E7
it  doesn't take much to make him  cry
       Am            E7
If you,  hurt someone  helpless
         F7                    Am
it's like  taking away all his toys
              G7       C
He's just a, cry baby boy

My guy is sentimental, he's
Always feeling blue
He can be so temperamental and
I don't know what I should do, if you
Step on a little bug
He cries all over the floor, he's just a
Cry baby bore

Chorus:
D7       E7      F7        E7
I don't want to hurt his feelings
G7       F#7       F7       E7
But his  outbursts have me really
D7       E7     F7      E7
Boo-hoo-hoo-ing all the time
    G7     G#7       A7
If  I turn out like him,
    B7       C          F7
I think I'm gonna cry, baby
G7               C
La la la la la  la
              C  F7
He's such a cry, baby
G              C
La la la la la la

     C
And  I'll tell you something else

My guy is such a wet noodle, he's
Always teary-eyed
He acts like a real cock-a-doodle, he
Can't even tell you why
If you just play him a sappy song, he
Acts like his dogie just died
He's just a cry baby guy
No kidding, oh dear

C
No kidding (oh dear)

My guy is such a wet noodle, he's
Always teary-eyed
He acts like a real cock-a-doodle, he
Can't even tell you why
If you just play him a sappy song, he
Acts like his dogie just died
He's just a cry baby guy
No kidding, oh dear

My guy is such a whiner, he's
Worse than Betty Sue
A cockroach seen in the diner and
The tears flow out of the blue
And if I ask him to knock it off
He goes and cries in the can, he's just a
Cry baby man

Chorus:
I don't want to hurt his feelings
But his outbursts have me really
Boo-hoo-hoo-ing all the time
If I turn out like him
I think I'm going to cry, baby
La, la, la-la-la-la
He's such a cry baby
La, la, la-la-la-la

I love a cry baby
La, la, la-la-la-la
He's such a cry baby
La, la, la-la-la-la

Would you knock it off please?
Thank you
