Oh, sure don't baby, baby, baby
I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you
But I love you
Always treat me like a fool
Kick me when I'm down, that's your rule
I don't know why I love you
But I love you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, you never, you never stop your cheating ways
With another guy you laugh in my face
Don't know how long must I be disgraced
'Cause I love you, oh baby, baby, baby
I don't know why I love you
I don't know you want me baby, oh yeah
I don't know why I love you
But I love you baby,
Oh darlin', darlin', darlin' darlin'
You throw my heart down in the dirt
Oh, you make me crawl
On this cold black Earth , baby, yeah
I never knew,
I never knew how much love could hurt
'Til I loved you baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah
Can't stop, I can't stop crying can't you see
Here I'm pleading on my knees,
Upon my knees, yeah baby, yeah
Won't you help me, help me please
'Cause I love you, love you, love you, ooh
Sho 'nuff baby
I don't know, you don't know
(I don't know why I love you)
We don't know nothin' about it
(Baby)
I can't do nothin' about it
(Baby)
I don't know, baby
(I don't know why I love you)
I don't know, ah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Baby)
I don't know, I don't know
(I don't know why I love you)
I don't know nothin' about it
(Baby)
