Hey baby
Don't you cry
I'm gonna wipe those little
Teardrops dry

Hey baby
Don't be sad
I know he hurt you
But it ain't so bad

You won't ever have to be alone again
I will always love you till the very end

Hey baby
Don't be blue
I will always take care of you

You won't ever have to be alone again
I will always love you till the very end

Hey baby
Don't you cry
I'm gonna wipe those little
Teardrops dry

Hey baby




Hey baby
Hey baby
