Oh Not Not My Baby
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When my friends told me you had someone new
I didn't believe a single word was true
I showed them all I had faith in you
I just kept on saying.
Chorus 1:
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
You're not like those other guys
Who lead you on and tell you lies.
My mama told me when rumors spread
There's truth somewhere and I should use my head
But I didn't listen to a word she said
I kept right on saying.
Chorus 2:
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
You're not like those other boys
Who play with hearts like they were toys.
Well you might have had a last minute fling
But I am sure it didn't mean a thing
Cause yesterday you gave me your ring
Now I'm so glad that I kept on saying.
Chorus 3:
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
You're not like those other guys
Who lead you on and tell you lies
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
Oh no not my baby
No no no no not my sweet baby
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
Oh no not my baby…
