Baby Don’t You Go Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I, if I ever tell you that I don't love you no more
I would be alright until you started out my door

[Chorus]
Then I would cry, oh baby, oh baby, oh
Oh baby, baby, don't you go

[Verse 2]
But if you, if you decided to just leave me anyway
I'd fall down on my knees, yeah, and this is what I'd say

[Chorus]
I would cry, ooh, ooh (Baby) baby
Ooh baby, ooh, ooh (Baby) baby
Baby, don't you go

[Bridge]
No matter what you do
No matter what you say
Do me wrong, but stay

[Chorus]
Ooh (Baby), baby, oh baby
Ooh baby, oh yeah, ooh, ooh (Baby) baby
Baby, don't you know, know, know, baby (Baby), know
Baby, know, baby, know, know, know, know
Please don't you go, baby, go, baby, go, baby, go
No, no, baby, don't you go

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
