Why Baby Why - Original - Ken Boothe

Why.

why baby?

Why did you leave?

Look how long we’ve been carrying on,

We’ve been uniting, undoing our wrongs,

Trying so hard to be good all along,

Now you hurt.

I says you hurt, my pride, why, why baby?

Why.

why darling?

Why did you go?

For the love of the Lord,

I beg you to return,

Please, please, baby, please,

Don’t.

don’t let my heart burn, burn.

Why.

why darling?

Why did you go?

For the love of the Lord,

I beg you to return,

Please, please, baby, please,

Don’t.

don’t let my heart burn, burn.

Why, why baby?

Why did you leave me standing, all alone,

Like a little child, lonely, baby

Lonely am I, I’ve waited for you.
