Oh, No, Not My Baby

(album: My Little Red Book Of Winners! - 1965)

"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Not my girl"

When my friends told me you had someone new
I didn't believe a single word was true
I told them all I had a faith in you
I just kept on sayin':

"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
She don't go with other guys
And I don't think she would tell me 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 sayin':

"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
She's not like these other girls, you see
And I believe she's in love with me
Oh no no no no no, not my girl"

Well, you might have had a last-minute fling
But I am sure it didn't mean a thing
'Cause yesterday you accepted my ring
And now I'm glad that I just kept on sayin':

"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Not my girl, not my girl"
