ALBUM: THE CRYING GAME

LABEL: SPAGHETTI RECORDS

GENRE: POP MUSIC

YEAR: 1993

"The Crying Game" is a song written and composed by Geoff Stephens. It was first released by Dave Berry in July 1964. It reached #5 on the UK Singles Chart. Session guitarist Big Jim Sullivan played lead guitar on Berry's version of the song, and Jimmy Page supported.

"The Crying Game" was covered by Boy George in 1992, and both this version and the original Dave Berry recordings were used as the theme to the 1992 Neil Jordan movie The Crying Game. Boy George's version of the song was produced by the Pet Shop Boys and reached #22 on the UK Singles Chart in 1992, #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the U.S., and #1 in Canada on the RPM 100 national singles chart the following year. Thus it became the biggest solo hit that he achieved in the US.

This version was also featured in the Jim Carrey comedy film Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. This was a joke reference to the film The Crying Game, with which it shared a plot point.

I know all there is to know about the crying game

I've had my share of the crying game

First there are kisses, then there are sighs

And then before you know where you are

You're sayin' goodbye

One day soon I'm gonna tell the moon about the crying game

And if he knows maybe he'll explain

Why there are heartaches, why there are tears

And what to do to stop feeling blue

When love disappears

I know all there is to know about the crying game

I've had my share of the crying game

First there are kisses, then there are sighs

And then before you know where you are

You're sayin' goodbye

Don't want no more of the crying game

Don't want no more of the crying game

Don't want no more of the crying game

Don't want no more of the crying game

Deixa a cidade, formosa morena,

linda pequena

e volta ao sertão

beber a água da fonte que canta

e se levanta do meio do chão

Se tu nasceste, cabocla cheirosa

cheirando à rosa

do peito da terra

volta pra vida serena da roça

daquela palhoça

no alto da serra

E a fonte a cantar, chuá, chuá,

e as "água" a correr, chuê, chuê,

parece que alguém que, cheio de mágoas,

deixasse, quem há de dizer, a saudade,

no meio das águas, rolando também.

A lua branca de luz prateada

faz a jornada no meio do céu

como se fosse uma sombra altaneira

da cachoeira, fazendo escarcéu

Quando essa luz, lá na altura distante,

doira ofegante, no poente, a cair,

dá-me esta trova que o pinho descerra,

que eu volto pra serra,

que eu quero partir!

Little ghetto boy

Playing in the ghetto street

Whatcha' gonna do when you grow up

And have to face responsibility?

Will you spend your days and nights in the pool room?

Will you sell caps of madness to the neighborhood?

Little ghetto boy

You already know how rough life can be

'Cause you've seen so much pain and misery

Little ghetto boy

Your daddy was blown away

He robbed that grocery store

Don't you know that was a sad, sad old day?

All of your young life

You've seen such a misery and pain

The world is a cruel place

And it ain't gonna change

You're so young

You've got so far to go

But I don't think you'll reach your goal

Young man, hanging by the pool room door

Look out...

Little ghetto boy

When, when, when you become a man

You can make things change, hey hey

If you just take a stand

You gotta believe in yourself and in all you do

You've gotta fight to make it better

You'll see how other people will start believing too

My son, things will start to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better

Everything has got to get better...

Meu bem, na hora que você chega perto

Eu me esqueço do errado e do certo

Quase fico louco, ah eu fico louco

E quando fico sem você, fico triste

E o mundo inteiro sem você não existe

Quase fico louco, ah eu fico louco

Eu quero ter você de qualquer maneira

Mas, você leva tudo na brincadeira

Diz que me quer, fala que sim

Mas, quando chego perto, você foge de mim

Você me diz que estou sendo apressado

E não entende que estou apaixonado

Quase fico louco, ah eu fico louco

Você não vê que é de você que eu preciso

Que, desse jeito, estou perdendo o juízo

Quase fico louco, ah eu fico louco

Eu quero ter você de qualquer maneira
