Have a Heart
Dean Martin · Everybody Loves Somebody: The Reprise Years 1962-1 [2002]
Have a heart have a heart
Let me warn you before we start
My love's no play-thing no throw-away thing
So have a heart.
When I swear how I care
I'm not fooling so please be fair
If you'll be lyin' I will be cryin'
So have a heart.
Darling it's the very first time
I've ever fell in love you see
This would be the very worst time
For you to take advantage of me.
So I plead please take me
Of the treatment my heart will meet
If you should break it I couldn't take it
So have a heart.
(Darling it's the very first time)
I've ever fell in love before
(This would be the very worst time)
For you to take advantage of me.
So I plead please take me
Of the treatment my heart will meet
If you should break it I couldn't take it
So have a heart...
