When my friends told me you had someone new
I didn't believe a single word was true
I showed them all I had a 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 lead you on and tell you lies
(Tell you lies)

My mama told me when rumors spread
There's truth somewhere
And I should use my head
But didn't listen to what she said
I kept right on saying

Oh, no, not my baby
Oh, no, not my sweet baby
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

Oh, no, not my baby
Oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh, no, not my baby
Oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh, no, not my baby
Oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh, no, not my baby
Oh no, not my sweet baby
