Lyrics for Song: Baby, Don't You Cry
Lyrics for Album: Sweet & Sour Tears [1997]
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 you
True love that was sincere
You didn't really care
So now, baby, baby, don't you cry
And I remember, sweetheart
That it was you and I
Who said 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 interfering
You ought to be satisfied
You know I'm gonna keep on caring
Why should you feel blue
I'll tell you, I'm gonna
Be the one to lose
Baby, baby, don't you cry
Whoa, baby, don't you cry
Because of any hearing
You ought to be satisfied because
I'm gonna keep on caring
Why should you feel blue
You know I'll be the one to lose
So now, baby, baby, don't you cry
