Oh! No Not My Baby
Lyrics and Music: Gerry Goffin, Carole King

 

When my friends told me you have someone new,

I didn’t believe a single word was true.

I told them all I had faith in you,

I kept a right on saying…

 

Oh no, not my baby!

Oh no, not my sweet baby!

 

You’re not like all those other girls who play with the men’s hearts

Like they were toys.

My mama told me: “Son, when rumours spread that there is truth

Somewhere, then you should use your head.”

But I sure didn’t listen to what she said.

Don’t you know I kept a right on saying…

 

Oh no, not my baby!

Oh no, not my sweet baby!

 

You’re not like all those other girls who lead you on

And tell you lies…

No, no, my baby!

Tell them, baby, I don’t believe what they’re saying, no!

 

Oh no, not my baby!

Oh no, not my sweet baby!

 

Oh no, not my baby!

Oh no, not my sweet baby!

 

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my sweet, sweet baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

No way!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my baby!

Not my sweet, sweet baby!

 

Oh no, not my baby!

Oh no, not my sweet baby!

Oh no, not my baby!

Oh no, not my sweet baby!

Oh no, not my baby!

Oh no, not my sweet baby!

Oh no, not my baby!

Oh no, not my sweet baby!
