When my friends told me you had someone new
I didn't believe a single word was true
I showed them all I had was faith in you
I just kept on saying,
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
You're not like those other guys
Who leave you hard and tell you lies
My mama told me when rumour spread,
There's truth somewhere and I should use my head
But I didn't listen to what she said
I kept right on saying,
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
You're not like those other boys
Who play with hearts like they were toys
Well you might have had a last-minute fling
But I am sure it didn't mean a thing
'Cause yesterday you gave me a ring
And now I'm glad that I kept on saying,
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
You're not like those other guys
Who leave you hard and tell you lies
Oh no not my baby
Oh no not my sweet baby
