Now that I've lost ev'rything to you
You said you want to start something new.
And it's breakin' my heart you leaving
Baby, I'm grievin'

But if you want to leave take good care
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there.

Oh baby, baby
It's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby, baby
It's a wild world
I'll always remember you just like a child girl.

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breakin' my heart in two
Because I never want to see you sad girl
Don't be bad girl

But if you want to leave take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad air and beware.

Oh baby, baby
It's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile;
Oh baby, baby
It's a wild world
I'll always remember you just like a child girl.
