Huh, baby, don’t you do it
Don’t do it, babe
Don’t break my heart
Don’t do it, babe
Don’t break my heart
Pplease don’t do it, babe
Don’t you break my heart

Girl, I’ll sacrifice to make you happy
If nothin’ for myself
Now you wanna leave me
For the love of someone else

My pride is all gone
Whether right or wrong
I need you, baby
Better keep on keepin’ on

Girl, I try to do my best
Girl, I try to do my best
Don’t do it, babe
Don’t break my heart
Oh, don’t do it baby
Don’t break my heart

My biggest mistake was lovin’ you too much
And lettin’ you know
‘Cause now you’ve got me where you want me
And you’re gonna let me go

My heart was made of glass
Then you truly see
Heartaches and misery
You’ve been causin’ me

Girl, I try to do my best
Girl, I try to do my best
Don’t you do it
Don’t break my heart

Go down to the river
And there I’ll be
I’m gonna jump in, baby
If you don’t see it by me

Open up your eyes
Can’t you see I love you
Open up your heart, girl
Can’t you see I need you

I’m no good without you
Can’t go on without you
Life’s no good without you
What am I gon’ do without you, hey

Baby, don’t do it
Don’t you break my heart
Don’t you do it, baby
Don’t you break my heart
What am I gonna do without you
Got to go on, baby, ha
Baby, don’t you do it
Oh, baby
