Sa-a-a-d movies Always make me cry He said he had to work So I went to the show alone They turned down the lights And turned the projector on And just as the news of the world started to begin I saw my darlin' and my best friend walk in Though I was sittin' there they didn't see And so they sat 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, sa-a-a-d movies Always make me cry Oh-oh-oh, sa-a-a-d movies Always make me cry (Doo-be doo-be doo-be doo-be doo be) So I got up and slowly walked on home And mama saw the tears and said "what's wrong?" And so to keep from telling her a lie I just said "sa-a-a-d movies Make me cry" (make me cry, oh-oh, oh) Oh-oh-oh, sa-a-a-d movies Always make me cry Oh-oh-oh, sa-a-a-d movies Always make me cry (Doo-be doo-be doo-be doo-be doo be) "Sa-a-a-d movies Make me cry"
