Close your eyes, sweet baby
Now don't you cry
Everybody gets their heart broke, sweet baby
Sometimes
So he left you for another fool
Yes, a fool
For loving him from the start
Ask urself what's more important
Him or the broken pieces of your heart?
Sweet baby

Stand tall, sweet baby
Now don't you fall
You ain't the only one getting beat down
It happens to us all
The road you choose to walk in this life
Is the one that leads in2 the next
So, sweet baby, stall tall
Stand tall
Sweet baby

Sweet baby
Hold your tears back now
Better days gone come your way soon, oh, yes sweet baby
Some way, somehow

Don't let those bad boys catch you
Those things that they would have you do

Oh, and how
How can you sleep knowing that you and a fool
Sing in the same key?
