Paroles
Shoobeedeedoo ooh-ooh
Shoobeedeedoo ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh
Baby, just don't lie there
Baby, please don't stare
I can't help if I feel this way (I can't help if I feel this way)
Baby, I've been crying, I've been trying
I fell in love, I tried to say (I fell in love, I tried to say)
How'd I know-ow that love would slip away
Hey, hey, hey
How'd I know-ow that love would slip away
Hey, hey, hey
You always made some promises
You knew you'd never keep
But when you said you'd phone and didn't
You knew that I'd lose sleep (you knew that I'd lose sleep)
Tried to understand you, baby
Did the best I could
Boy, I can't keep loving you
The way I said I would (the way I said I would)
How'd I know-ow that love would slip away
Hey, hey, hey
How'd I know-ow that love would slip away
Hey, hey, hey
Hey hey, hey hey, hey
Hey hey, hey hey, hey
Hey hey, hey hey, hey
Hey hey, hey hey
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh
Shoobeedeedoo ooh-ooh
Shoobeedeedoo ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Baby let me do my thing
I'm feeling, I'm feeling so much pain
Baby, please don't lie there
Baby, please don't stare
I can't help if I feel this way
How'd I know-ow that love would slip away
How'd I know-ow that love would slip away
There must’ve been a reason
(Baby don’t you slip away)
I didn’t want things to go this, this way
(Baby don’t you slip away)
Mister man, you had me in your hands
And I was at your command
(Baby don’t you slip away)
But you messed the plan
(Baby don’t you slip away)
Why don’t you wait, why don’t you wait
Baby don’t you slip away
Why don’t you wait, why don’t you wait
Baby don’t you slip away
Why don’t you wait, why don’t you wait
Baby don’t you slip away
Why don’t you wait, why don’t you wait
Baby don’t you slip away
Why don’t you wait, why don’t you wait
Baby don’t you slip away
Why don’t you wait, why don’t you wait
Baby don’t you slip away
