Bonnie Raitt Picture
Bonnie Raitt, (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues/R&B singer, songwriter, and guitarist who was born in Burbank, California, the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt. Raitt began playing guitar at an early age, something not a lot of her high school girlfriends did. Later she would become famous for her bottleneck-style guitar playing. "I had played a little at school and at camp," she later recalled in a July 2002 interview. "My parents would drag me out to perform for my family, like all parents do, but it was a hobby—nothing more...I think people must wonder how a white girl like me became a blues guitarist.

Cry on My Shoulder Lyrics

Bonnie Raitt

I know its hard sometimes
And things seem larger than they are
But if you need to tell someone
Thats what Im here for
Cry on my shoulder
Ill help you rise above
Cry on my shoulder, my love
Out in the world outside
It can be harsh and cold
But if you need someone
I will be here to hold you
Cry on my shoulder
Ill help you dry your eyes
Cry on my shoulder, my love
I know its hard sometimes
And things seem larger than they are
But if you need to let it go
Then you can call on me
Cry on my shoulder
Ill help you dry your eyes
Cry on my shoulder, my love
Cry on my shoulder
Ill help you rise above
Cry on my shoulder, my love
My love...
