Lyrics:

Baby don't go,
Pretty baby please don't go

I never had a brother
I hardly knew my dad
I've been in town for 18 years
and you're the only boy I've had
I can't stay
maybe I'll be back someday

Baby don't go,
Pretty baby please don't go
I love you so,
Pretty baby please don't go

I never had much money
I shopped at the second-hand store
the way this old town laughs at me
I just can't take no more
Yes I'm going away,
I'm gonna be a lady someday

Baby don't go,
Pretty baby please don't go
I love you so
Pretty baby please don't go

When I get to the city
My tears will all be dried
My eyes will look so pretty
No one gonna know I cried
Yes, I'm going away
Maybe I'll be back someday

Baby don't go
Baby I'll be back someday
Baby don't go
Baby I'll be back someday
Baby don't go
Baby I'll be back someday
