I shouldn't cry
When you kiss me, good-bye
But most of us do
I shouldn't sigh
When you tell me a lie
But most of us do

I should've known at the start, dear
Love is an old army game
I shouldn't dream of the sun
When I'm so used to the rain, dear

Though I pretend that I'm gay
Through the rain
But most of us do
Longing to hug you and kiss you, again
But most of us do

I shouldn't try to forget, dear
Loving the way I do
I shouldn't grieve the moment you leave meTampa Red - The Most Of Us Do - http://motolyrics.com/tampa-red/the-most-of-us-do-lyrics.html
But most of us do

(instrumental)

'Yas, yas'
Come on now, come on

(Tampa claps through instrumental)

'At's it!'
'I want ev'rybody sing, help me'

'I hear you, I hear you, tryin'-a sing'

'Uh-huh, I hear ya Mr. Ivory man'

And though I pretend
That I'm gay to the end
But most of us do
Just longing to hug you
And kiss you, again
But most of us do

I shouldn't try to forget you
Loving the way I do-ooo
I shouldn't grieve whenever you leave me
But most of us do.
