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 sitting 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



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"

Oh-oh-oh sa-a-a-d movies always make me cry

Oh-oh-oh sa-a-a-d movies always make me cry
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Sa-a-a-d movies make me cry-i-i
