(Don't say nothin' bad about my baby)
Oh no
(Don't say nothin' bad about my baby) G
I love him so
(Don't say nothin' bad about my baby) D
Oh don't you know
(Don't say nothin' bad about my baby)
He's
good (he's good), he's good to me (good to me)
That's all I care about
Oh no
Verse 2:
(Don't you tell me my baby's just a playboy)
It isn't true
(Don't you tell me my baby's just a playboy)
That's a lie
(I don't listen to a single word they say, boy)
He's my guy
(Don't you tell me my baby's just a playboy)
He's
true (he's true), he's true to me (true to me)
So girl, you'd better ship him out
Bridge:
(Everybody says he's lazy)
But not when he's kissin' me
(Everybody says he's crazy)
Sure he's crazy, crazy 'bout me
(repeat verse 1)
(instrumental; same pattern as verses)
(repeat verse 1, but replace "He's good...care about" with "He's true...ship him out")
(repeat and fade):
Oh no (don't say nothin' bad about my baby)
