My tears are falling
'cos you've taken her away
And though it really hurts me so,
there something that I got to say:

Take good care of my baby,
please don't ever make her blue
Just tell her that you love her
make sure you're thinking of her
in everything you say and do

Take good care of my baby,
now don't you ever make her cry
Just let your love surround her,
paint rainbows all around her,
don't let her see the cloudy sky

Once upon a time
that little girl was mine
If I had been true
I know she'd never been with you

So take good care of my baby,
be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
that you don't really love her
just send my baby back home to me

Take good care of my baby,
be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
that you don't really love her
just send my baby back home to me

Take good care of my baby,
take good care of my baby,
take good care of my baby
