(Sonny Bono)



She never had a mother, 

She hardly knew her dad

She's been in town for 18 years,

And I'm the only boy she's had



Chorus:



Oh baby don't go

Pretty baby please don't go

I love you so

Pretty baby don't go



I never had no money,

I bought at the second hand store

The way this old town laughs at me

I just can't take it no more



Said she can't stay

She's gonna be a lady someday



Chorus:



Oh baby don't go

Pretty baby please don't go

I love you so

Pretty baby don't go



When she gets to the city

Her tears will all be dry

My eyes will look so pretty,

No one's gonna know I cried

She's goin' away

Hey maybe she'll come back someday



Chorus:



Oh baby don't go

Pretty baby please don't go

I love you so

Pretty baby don't go

Oh baby don't go

Pretty baby please don't go

I love you so (I love you so)

Oh, pretty baby please don't go (I won't go, no no no)



Hey baby, oh baby, please baby don't go

(Well I won't go, no)

pretty baby please don't go

(I won't go, no)
