Bye Bye Baby
Bay City Rollers · Bye Bye Baby [2011]
I can't put it off any longer
I just gotta tell her anyway
Bye bye baby, baby good-bye
(Bye baby, baby bye bye)
Bye bye baby, don't make me cry
(My baby, baby bye bye)
You're the one girl in town I'd marry
Girl I'd marry you now if I were free
I wish it could be
I could love you but why begin it
Cause there ain't any future in it
(She's got me and I'm not free so)
Bye bye baby, baby good-bye
(Bye baby, baby bye bye)
Bye bye baby, don't make me cry
(My baby, baby bye bye)
Wish I never have known you better
Wish I knew you before I met her
Gee, how good it would be for me
Should have told her that I can't linger
There's a wedding ring on my finger
(She's got me and I'm not free so)
Bye bye baby, baby good-bye
(Bye baby, baby bye bye)
Bye bye baby, don't make me cry
(My baby, baby bye bye)
Chorus till fade out
