Real Men Cry is an album by roots music band Lost Dogs, released on BEC Records in 2001.

This was the first album by the Lost Dogs after Gene Eugene's death in March 2000 and is a tribute to him.

The song "Lovely Man" is not listed on the back cover of the CD. It was actually meant to go between the songs "Three Legged Dog" and "When The Judgement Comes," but was moved and drastically edited by the label, BEC Records. The label objected to the lyric "right by damn," and completely edited it from the recording on the final album. The song, in its unedited form, has only surfaced on CD once on a Paste Magazine CD sampler.
