I'm Not Gonna Cry

Lyrics

I'm not gonna cry today, I won't shed a tear
 Even if some milk is spilt, I won't dilute my beer
 I won't use a tissue, my pillow will stay dry
 And I won't need a shoulder, 'cause I'm not gonna cry
 I'm not gonna snivel, and I'm not gonna sob
 Both my eyes will remain dry, and I won't have to dob them
 Move me with a tragedy, just go ahead and try
 Play me a tearjerker, but I'm not gonna cry
 I'm not gonna weep today, I will not wet my cheek
 I'll count to ten and I'll hold it in, I'm not gonna leak
 I'm not gonna lose it, 'though I may wanna die
 They say it's good to let it out, but I'm not gonna cry
 I'm not gonna blub today, and I'm not gonna bawl
 And I'm not gonna fall apart, even if you call me
 I couldn't cry for forty years, I was too tough a guy
 Now I can do it anytime, but I'm not gonna cry
 I must have cried a million tears, at least ninety-six
 I cried me a river, and an ocean just for kicks
 Listen to the thunder, dark clouds fill the sky
 Well, it looks like rain and I hear a train, but I'm not gonna cry
 Yeah, well,
 it looks like rain and I hear a train, but I'm not gonna cry
