Baby don't you cry
You know I'd soon discover
One day by and by
I'd find you love another
No matter what you say
I'm leaving right away
So baby don't you cry

You know you can't deny
I did my best to please you
For you were so unkind
I tried so hard to leave you
The love that was sincere
You didn't really care
So baby don't you cry

Well remember sweetheart
It was you and not I
Who said that we should part
The time has come
To say goodbye
So why do you cry sweetheart
I say baby, baby don't you cry
Because the end is nearing
You'll be satisfied
I guess I'll keep on caring
So why should you feel blue
I'll be the one to lose
Baby don't you cry
Baby don't you cry
