[Verse 1]
Now that I've lost everything to you
You say you wanna start something new
And it's breaking my heart, you're leaving, baby I'm grieving

[Pre-Chorus]
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there

[Chorus]
Ooh baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just by a smile
Ooh baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl

[Verse 2]
You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breaking my heart in two
Cause I never wanna see you a sad girl
Don't be a bad girl

[Pre-Chorus]
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
Just remember there's a lot of bad and beware
[Chorus]
Ooh baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just by a smile
Ooh baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl

[Pre-Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Baby I love you
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
Just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

[Chorus]
Ooh baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just by a smile
Ooh baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl

[Chorus]
Ooh baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just by a smile
Ooh baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl
