When my friends told me you had someone new
I didn't believe a single word was true
I told them all I had a faith in you

I kept right on saying

(Chorus)

Oh no, not my baby
Oh no, not my sweet baby
After all the love we found

She would never ever let me down

My momma told me

When rumors spread
There's truth somewhere
And I should use my head

But I didn't listen to what she said
I just kept right on saying


Oh no, not my baby
Oh no, not my sweet baby
There was no one in this whole world

Could make me believe I'd lost my girl

Now I never asked you for whole alibis

I know those rumors were only lies
The truth was right there in your eyes
Now I'm so glad I kept on saying


(Chorus)


Oh no, not my baby
Oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh no, not my baby

Oh no, not my sweet baby
