[Intro]
Whoa, I love you girl
But that's something that worries me
Yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Once, I gave up my heart to a woman
She told me was gonna do hurt
Then I gave up my love to another
She says she love me day and night

[Chorus]
But whoa, to myself
You left me all alone and blue
I'm afraid the same thing will happen with you now

[Verse 2]
No, not me baby
Not I baby
Ain't nobody, nobody's gonna break my heart
If I do kinda go for you
I'ma preach that you gonna break it up
Breaking down a thousand parts now

[Refrain]
Yes, I gave up my money and I work hard
For everything that I possess
All I wanted from her was her loving
And just a little tenderness

[Chorus]
But whoa, my-my-my-my-myself
You left me all alone and blue
I'm afraid, whoa I'm afraid
Same thing will happen with you baby

[Refrain]
Yes, I gave up my money and I work hard
For everything that I possess
All I wanted from her was her loving
And just a little tenderness

[Chorus]
But whoa, my-my-my-my-myself
You left me all alone and blue
I'm afraid, whoa I'm afraid
I'm afraid, whoa I'm afraid
Same thing will happen with you baby

[Outro]
You gonna make me blue baby
You gonna dog me around baby
Make me feel like a clown baby
That's why I said hello baby
And I ain't playing a hundred
That's why I said uh
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
