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
