I been pleadin' to my baby 

'Don't leave me all alone' 

I been pleadin' to my baby 

'Don't leave me all alone' 

Because I will miss her 

Ev'ryday that she'll be gone 

People, I was sitting down, wondering 

What can a po' man do? 

People, I was sitting down, wondering 

What can a po' man do? 

When the one you love 

Said that she is leavin' you 

My baby told me, 'Bye-bye' 

As she was leaving outta my do' 

My baby told me, 'Bye-bye' 

As she was leaving outta my do' 

She say, 'You'll never see my smilin' face, no mo' 

So I begged you, baby 

Did ev'rything that I could do 

So I have begged you, baby 

Did ev'rything that I could do 

An if you just want to leave me 

I'm gonna leave it up to you 

It was love, it was love 

That have almost broke my heart 

It was love, it was love 

That have almost broke my heart 

But you know sometimes 

The best of friends must part.
