I say, baby, don't you cry
You know I'll soon discover
One day by and by
That you loved another
No matter what you say
I'm gonna leave you, right away
So now, baby, baby, don't you cry
Mmm, you know you can't deny
I did my best to please you
But you were so unkind
But still I try to need ya
True love that was sincere
You didn't really care
So now, baby, baby, don't ya cry
And I remember, sweetheart
That it was you and not I
Who said that, that we must part, uh huh
And the time has come to say goodbye
So why do you cry, sweetheart
Hey, hey, baby, don't you cry
Because I'm interferin’
You ought to be satisfied
You know I'm gonna keep on carin’
Why should you feel blue?
I'll tell you, I'm gonna
Be the one to lose
Baby, baby, don't you cry
(Musical interlude)
Whoa, baby, don’t you cry
Because of interferin’
You ought to be satisfied because
I'm gonna keep on carin’
Why should you feel blue?
You know I'll be the one to lose
So now, baby, baby, don't you cry
