lyrics
part 1.
I love baby, but my baby's not around.
I throw my letters to my baby on the ground.
And it ain't nobody's business.
And it ain't nobody's business.
And I love baby, and my baby's so fine.
I play checkers with my baby all the time.
And it ain't nobody's business.
And it ain't nobody's business.
part 2.
Sweet sweet baby.
I would rather die than let you go.
And I was always crazy.
But you never really seemed to know.
Sweet sweet baby.
I read over your letters every day.
And when you come to save me.
Promise you will take me far away.
Sweet sweet baby.
I believe in lobe, and love, and love, and love.
And I believe in baby's
Power to good and all that stuff.
And sweet sweet baby,
Just a little thing you ought to know.
You're my baby,
and I am never going to let you go.
part 3.
I'm coming out, I'm coming out...
Oh, God, what have you done?
You shattered my heart for a little thrill.
And I hope it was fun.
You never knew how to love me then.
Now you never will.
Oh, God, what have you done?
Now what have you done?
Oh, God, what have you done?
Now what hav eyou done?
Up, up, up and away.
Thought I had it figured out this time.
But I didn't quite.
You have lasted a day.
And I know that you won't be mine
By tomorrow night.
Oh, God, what have you done?
Now what have you done?
Oh, God, what have you done?
Now what have you done?
Hold me now.
Swear to God.
Say you believe, you believe, you believe,
These arms I'm holding out are not
Going to leave, going to leave, going to leave, going to leave.
Now what have you done?
Now what have you done?
Oh, God, what have you done?
Now what have you done?
Now what have you done?
Etc.
