Baby don't go, pretty baby please don't go
I never had a mother, I only knew my dad
I've been in town for 18 years, you're the only girl I've had
I can't stay, maybe I'll be back someday
Baby don't go, pretty baby please don't go
I love you so, pretty baby please don't go
I never had no money, I bought at a second hand store
The way this old town laughs at me, I just can't take it no more
I can't stay, maybe I'll be back someday
I can't stay, maybe I'll be back someday
Baby don't go, pretty baby please don't go
I love you so
Pretty baby please don't go
When I get to the city, my tears will all be dry
My eyes will look so pretty, no one's gonna know I cried
Yes I'm awake, maybe I'll be back someday
Baby don't go, pretty baby please don't go
I never had a mother, I only knew my dad
I never had a mother, I only knew my dad
I never had a mother, I only knew my dad
