All I remember is “and I cry like a baby, in the darkness of my room.”
It is definitely not the “Cry Like a Baby” song by the Box Tops. I don’t even know when it originally came out, probably late 60’s or early 70’s.
Can you hum a few bars?

Somebody shoot me for remembering this, but I believe it’s called ‘Cry Like a Baby’ by (cringe) Bobby Sherman.

Judging by that attitude, should I be happy that I have never heard of Bobby Sherman?
AuraSeer – I would say, yes, you’re fortunate, but judge for yourself:

I remember playing Bobby Sherman’s record* that came on the back of the Raisin Bran box. You cut it out, put it on the turntable, and voila! Ahhh, the good old days.
*For those who have never seen a record, it was black, circular, and it spinned on a thing called a “turntable.”
Speaking of artist/titles, there’s been a song that’s been played ad nauseum around here, but radio stations have quit telling you artists and titles anymore. It has the words: “Does anyone here/hate everyone here/ for doing just like I do.” or something like that.
Who is the artist and title? Anyone?
Thanks for the info. I did some digging and Bobby Sherman (gulp!) is indeed the culprit.

It sounds like “Back 2 Good” by Matchbox 20.
Lisa: I think Falcon’s right about “Back 2 Good”, unless there is another song out there with those lyrics.
“Of course, that’s just my opinion; I could be wrong.”–Dennis Miller
Thanks for the song title. The words “back to good” are in the song, so that makes sense.
Bobby Sherman is a security guard at a Hollywood studio these days, saw it on MTV.
Now I have a line, “two dollars in jukebox, my whole life savings, one nickel at a time.” Artist?Country, Probably 1950s. NOT Eddie Rabbitt with a song starting the same way.
