Watch out he's the kind to deceive
Mama tried to tell me but I didn't believe
Something about you that put me on a string,
For your tender love I gave up everything.
Too late now I am aware,
I'm not the only girl who has your tender love and care.
You took my love, money and time.
Please have mercy baby don't take my mind.
Don't do it.
It's plain to see you don't care for me
Still you get jealous when I talk to other guys
You have another girl somewhere
Your love I have to share
You leave here, you go there
You won't let me go nowhere
Please
It's too much to take
It's driving me insane
I try to call myself up all in vain
I've given you all I can afford
That's not enough baby you still want more
But baby all that's left is my sanity
Don't take that away from me
You took my love, money and time
Please have mercy baby
Don't take my mind
All that's left is my sanity
Don't take that away from me
No baby
Don't take my mind
Don't take my mind
All that's left is my sanity
Don't take, don't take that away from me
