She stood 'round looking like someday,
Things might change for the better,
"Ah! Maybe today's the day's the day,"
But ah! She saw me dawdling down,
And she all but turned away,
But babe it's alright now,
Don't you waste those pretty tears on me,
No don't you waste those pretty tears on me!
Thought she'd found her a new game,
Playing misses Godiva,
For some stranger in a new suit,
And she done told me,
Yeah she done told me!
B-B-B-B-B-B-Bye, Babe, Bye, Bye!
Ahh!
But babe it's alright now,
Don't you waste those pretty tears on me,
No don't you waste those pretty tears on me!
Guitar Solo
She stood 'round looking like someday,
Things might change for the better...
But babe it's alright now,
Don't you waste those pretty tears on me,
No don't you waste those pretty tears on me!
(Ps. If I Catch You Stealin' This You Better Run!)
