|
She could be young an' foolish |
|
She could be old an' wise |
|
But love is dangerous.. |
|
When the heart is blind |
|
Became a girl of eighteen |
|
Goin' on forty-five... |
|
The man'd get fired up |
|
An' then he' strike her down |
|
An' baby shut her mouth now |
|
Nobody hear the sound |
|
Still got her pride made up her mind |
|
No turnin' around... |
|
The only sound he'll hear tonight |
|
Her footsteps out the door |
|
(Chorus:) |
|
Baby go round an' round an' round |
|
Pick up the pieces when it all comes down |
|
Life gets better than it is right now |
|
Baby go round |
|
Hush little baby, she don't cry |
|
Come here alone and alone you die |
|
A heart can break but love survives |
|
Baby go round an' round an' round an' round |
|
She got a brand new feelin' |
|
Put on a brand new face |
|
An' sorry has no meanin' |
|
In 'er bran' new place |
|
There's a time for forgiveness |
|
And a time when it's too late... |
|
It's much too late |
|
The only sound she'll hear tonight |
|
His knockin' at her door |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Baby go round an' round an' round |
|
Pick up the pieces when it all comes down |
|
Life gets better than it is right now |
|
(Baby go round), an' round an' round an' round |
|
She wants, what she.. wants |
|
(Chorus) |
|
(Baby go round) She wants what she wants |
|
(Baby go round) Aw pick up, pick up the pieces |
|
Oh-ooh..., pick up the pieces...... |
