don't let your baby catch you lyrics

Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around
You just might lose the best thing you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around

Oh, the nights are long and twice as cold
Without my baby hands to hold
My happiness is fading away
(Is fading and fading)

Just like a thief I tried to steal a kiss
From another pretty miss
My baby was the price that I paid

Now listen fellas
(Think twice)
Think twice if you have cheating on your mind
(Watch your step)
Remember the punishment will fit the crime

(Don't)
Don't let your baby catch you
(Don't)
Don't let your baby catch you
(I said don't)
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around
You just might lose the best thing you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around

Oh, I hope it's not too late for me
To right my wrong and foolish deed
I'm gonna crawl back all the way on my knees

And if that don't do I'll get the moon
And set it down in front of her
Oh, before I even say please

If I get one more chance my life will be as good as new
And I would not forget the days
The sun will not shine through

Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around
Hey, hey, oh, no
Take me back, take me back, take me back, baby

Don't let her, your baby catch you
You might lose the best thing you ever found
Tell 'em about it Mike

If you're crazy about your baby
And she's crazy about you
Just think of what you'll do to her
If she was untrue

Don't let your baby catch you
(Don't)
Don't let your baby catch you
(I said don't)
Don't let your baby catch you, hey, huh, alright
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around
You just might lose the best thing you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around, hey, hey

Don't let her
Don't let her
Don't let her, no, no, no
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around
You just might lose the best thing you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around
