Текст (слова) песни: Lonnie Johnson - Be Careful (1940)
Baby, please don’t leave me, I can’t take it by myself. Baby, please don’t leave me, can’t take it by myself. All the love I have for you in my heart, I can’t trust it with nobody else.
Aaaaah, sing it, Lonnie! [spoken words – Dan Dixon] I give you my money, my lovin’, and everything that belong to me. Give you my money, my lovin’, and everything that belong to me. Aaaaah, sing it! [spoken–D. D.] And if I’ve been a bad fellow, I wasn’t intent to be.
You say that you love me. How can you stay out the way you do? You say that you love me. How can you stay out from me the way you do? But someday I’ll find me someone, baby that will take the place of you.
The things I use to take off you baby, I ain’t goin’ take them no more. ‘Caused me to drink and gamble, ‘caused me to tramp through the rain and snow. But now I’m so glad, I’ve found me a brand new place to go. Aaaaah, you’re right! [spoken–D. D.]
I love you and I trust you, then you let me catch you wrong. Aaaaah, stop for me! [spoken–D. D.] I love you and I trust you, and you ain’t stayed here since I been gone. So here’s your brand new ticket, and hell will be your brand new home.
