Leeds Music demo, NYC - february 1962  

Mm, tell mama
Where'd you sleep last nite?
Can't you hear me cryin'?
Hm, hm, hm

Hey, tell me baby
What's the matter here?
Can't you hear me cryin'?
Hm, hm, hm

Hey, stop ol' train
Let a poor boy ride
Can't you hear me cryin'?
Hm, hm, hm

Hey, Mister bartender
I swear i'm not too young
Can't you hear me cryin'?
Hm, hm, hm

Blow you whistle, policeman
My poor feet are trained to run
Can't you hear me cryin'?
Hm, hm, hm

Long distance operator
I hear this phone call is on the house
Can't you hear me cryin'?
Hm, hm, hm

Ashes an' diamonds
The difference i can't see
Can't you hear me cryin'?
Hm, hm, hm
