Laugh To Keep From Crying       Laugh To Keep From Crying     Can't lock my door 
Oh, I don't have no privacy 
The only thing that's mine 
Is what's inside of me   
When I've had enough 
A little voice inside 
It says you've got to be tough 
You've got to take it in stride   
Sometimes I am foolish 
I let it get the best of me 
At least I know that my mistakes 
Are my responsibility 
And   
I just have to laugh to keep from crying 
I just have to laugh to keep from crying   
I don't have a dime 
Oh, to buy those pretty things 
But I hear all the evidence 
You know it all sounds the same   
But I'm still waiting 
I've got my hands open wide 
You know my dream isn't fading 
I keep it hidden inside 
Oh   
I just have to laugh to keep from crying 
I keep on trying   
My friends don't understand 
Oh, they think I've lost my mind 
And I'm choking back the tears 
I've got to swallow my pride   
I just have to laugh, ah 
La, ah 
Lo, oh 
La, ah
