My tears are fallin' 'cause you've taken her away
and though it really hurts me so
there's something that i've gotta say
Take good care of my ba-a-a-by
please don't ever make her blu-u-u-ue
just tell her that you love her
make sure you're thinking of her
in everything you say and do-o-o-o
Aww, take good care of my ba-a-a-by
now don't you ever make her cry-y-y-y
just let your love surround her
paint a rainbow all around her
don't let her see a cloudy sky
Once upon a time that little girl was mine
if i'd been true, i know she'd never be with you
So, take good care of my ba-a-a-by
be just as kind as you can be-e-e-e
and if you should discover
that you don't really love her
just send my baby back home to me
<very brief instrumental break>
Well, take good care of my ba-a-a-by

Aww, take good care of my ba-a-a-by
well, take good care of my ba-a-a-by
fade
just, take good care of my ba-a-a-by
