Oh me, oh my, sweet baby said goodbye
Oh no one else could take her place in my life
Ooo we had something good
So tell me why she would
Go and make me cry, oh me,
Oh my, sweet baby said goodbye 

I remember how she'd hold me
And say she'd stay forever true
Back then the future looked so rosey
But tonight it's lookin' mighty blue 

Oh me, oh my, sweet baby said goodbye
Oh no one else could take her place in my life
Ooo we had something good
So tell me why she would
Go and make me cry, oh me,
Oh my, sweet baby said goodbye 

Don't know what I didn't give her
That she gets from someone new
I only know how much I miss her
And wish she hadn't broke my heart in two 

Oh me, oh my, sweet baby said goodbye
Oh no one else could take her place in my life
Ooo we had something good
So tell me why she would
Go and make me cry, oh me,
Oh my, sweet baby said goodbye
