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-I-I-I just kept on sayin'
Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
You're not like those other guys
Who lead you on and tell you lies
My mama told me when rumors spread
There's truth somewhere and I should use my head
But I didn't listen to a-what she said
I-I-I-I kept right on sayin'
Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
You're not like those other boys
Who play with hearts like they were toys
Well, you might have had a last-minute fling
But I am sure it didn't mean a thing
'Cause yesterday you gave-a me your ring
And now I'm glad that I kept on sayin'
Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
You're not like those other guys
Who lead you on and tell you lies
Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh no, not my baby; no, no, no, no, not my sweet baby
Oh no
