"Baby, Don't You Do It" lyrics

Baby, don't you do it, don't do it
Don't break my heart, please don't do it
Don't ya break my heart

I sacrifice to make you happy
Kept nothin' for myself
Now you wanna leave me
For the love of someone else
My pride is all gone, baby right or wrong
I need you, baby, to keep on keepin' on
Baby, I'm tryin' to do my best
I'm tryin' to do my best, don't do it
Don't break my heart, please don't do it
Don't ya break my heart

My biggest mistake was lovin' you too much
I'm lettin' you know
Now you've got me where you want me
And you won't let me go
My heart was made glad when you strolled, you see
How much heartache and misery you've been causin' me
I'm tryin' to do my best
I'm tryin' to do my best
Don't do it, don't break my heart
Please, don't do it, don't ya break my heart

Go down to the river and there I'll be
I'm gonna jump in, boy, if you don't see by me
Open up your eyes; can't you see I love you?
Open up your heart; can't you see I need you?

Baby, don't you do it, don't do it
Don't break my heart, please don't do it
Don't ya break my heart
