verse 1: She never had a mother, She hardly knew her dad. She's been in town for 18 years, And I'm the only boy she's had. Baby, I can't stay. Oh, maybe I'll come back someday. Oh baby, don't go, Pretty baby please don't go. I love you so, pretty baby please don't go. verse 2: I never had no money, I bought at the second-hand store. The way this old town laughs at me, I just can't take it no more. Said she can't stay. You're gonna be a lady someday. Oh baby, don't go, Pretty baby please don't go. I love you so, pretty baby please don't go. verse 3: When she gets to the city, Her tears will all be dry. My eyes will look so pretty, No-one's gonna know I cried. She's goin' away, And maybe she'll come back someday. *REPEAT Chorus* (to end of song)
