Well I heard the other day from some people who passed this way

They were saying you were untrue I love you baby no matter what you do

They say you'll leave me and I'm just a fool

All I'll ever be is your footstool

But I believe oh honey right now I believe in you oh yeah now



They say you're bad so bad but you're the best girl old Jerry ever had

Love me and leave me that's what they say I love you baby yeah come what may

They say you'll leave me and it won't be long

I'm gonna wake up one morning Lord I'm gonna find you gone

But I believe oh honey right now honey I believe in you oh yeah

[ piano ]

Well they say you're just plain bad

Well honey I say this you're the best girl that I ever had

Oh don't leave me don't leave me honey

They say you'll soon be gone that's what they say

Oh I'll love you baby yeah come what may

Honey I want you to hang around here and be with old Jerry just one more day

Cause I believe oh I believe I believe in you yes I believe
