VERSE 01: I left my darling the other day,/We started quarreling,/I went away;/But now I wish that I was back./I love my baby, indeed I do,/And who knows maybe, she loves me too,/But that’s just maybe, and that won’t do. CHORUS: All that worries me, is someone else may be there, while I’m gone;/In my dreams I see, a couple spooning on the lawn./That very thought just keeps me worried;/I lay awake till the break of the dawn./I must hurry back, ‘cause someone else may be there, while I’m gone. VERSE 02: I’m wild about her, that’s why I’m blue,/I hate to doubt her the way I do;/I may be wrong/I may be right./Altho’ I worry an awful lot,/If I should hurry back to the spot,/She may be waiting./She may be, not! | |
