Baby Don't Go

Sonny And Cher · Other Songs - Sonny And Cher

I never had a mother,
I hardly knew my dad
I've been in town for 18 years
and you're the only boy I've had

I can't stay,
maybe I'll be back some day

Baby, don't go,
Pretty baby, please don't go
I love you so,
Pretty baby, please don't go

I never had no money,
I bought at the second hand store
The way this old town laughs at me
I just can't take it no more

I can't stay,
I'm gonna be a lady some day

Baby, don't go,
Pretty baby, please don't go
I love you so,
Pretty baby, please don't go

When I get to the city,
My tears will all be dried
My eyes will look so pretty
No one's gonna know I cried

I'm goin' away,
Maybe I'll be back some day

Baby, don't go
Pretty baby, please don't go

Baby, don't go
Pretty baby, please don't go
I love you so (I love you soo)

Oh, pretty baby, please dont go(I won't go, no, no, no)
Hey, baby, oh, baby, please, baby, don't go (oh, I won't go)
Pretty baby, please, don't go (I won't go, NOO)
i love you so (well i love you so)

About Baby Don't Go

Sonny and Cher's "Baby Don't Go" stands as a defining track from their 1965 debut album, *A Boy, a Girl, and a Dog*. Released during the height of the British Invasion, the song blends pop sensibilities with a distinct country-rock influence, reflecting the duo's unique ability to cross musical boundaries. While often overshadowed by their massive hit "I Got You Babe," this recording showcases Cher's vocal versatility and Sonny's songwriting talents in a more mature, reflective light. The track captures the emotional tension of a fading romance, delivered with a polished production that became a staple of mid-60s radio. Its enduring appeal lies in its authentic portrayal of heartbreak, making it a significant song in their early discography that paved the way for their later, more complex musical explorations.
