Bessie Smith
Don’t Cry Baby
Honey, please don't cry, listen to me
There's no reason why we shouldn't agree
If I hurt your feelings, I apologize
You're the only one that I idolize

Don't cry, baby, don't cry, baby
Dry your eyes and let's be sweethearts again
I didn't mean to make you feel blue
Honest, I'd never do it again

Won't you forgive, won't you forget, do as I ask you to
I never let you regret, just start anew
You know I'm sorry, oh, so sorry
Don't cry baby, there's no one but you

Don't cry, baby, don't cry, baby
Dry your eyes and let's be sweethearts again
I didn't mean to make, make you feel blue
Honest, I'll never do it again

Won't you forgive, won't you forget, do as I ask you to
I never let you regret, just start anew
You know I'm sorry, oh, so sorry
Don't cry, baby, there's no one but you
