DON'T MAKE MY BABY BLUE
(Barry Mann / Cynthia Weil)

Also recorded by: Frankie Laine; Lonnie Mack; The Shadows.


I know that I can't keep her
Now she's in love with you
But I just wanna say
I won't be far away
So don't make my baby blue
*I know your reputation
They say you can't be true
So I'll be standing by
And you just better try
Not to make my baby blue
**My little girl, she's always been an angel
And it hurts me so bad to set her free
You better take good care of her
She still means all the world to me
You know she does
***I'm gonna step aside now
Just like she wants me to
But even though I'm gone
I'll still be looking on
You better not make my baby blue
She's been a good baby
....
(*repeat)
(**repeat)
(***repeat)
You better try your best
Don't make my baby blue
Blue
