Violent Femmes — Please Do Not Go lyrics

Lyrics

Tell you man I’m stuck on this lovely girl
of course to me u’know she mean all the world
but then she like another guy
I fall down dead she never see the tears I cry
please please please do not go how long can the days go on when my love is so strong
and I know I cannot tell a lie
I wanna see him go bye
bye bye bye bye bye bye bye
now I wonder what she would say
if I told her that I felt this way
y’know it might make her turn either way
so all I can do is patiently pray
pray pray pray pray
tell yuo man I’m stuck on this lovely girl
and y’know I could travel all over the whole world
please please please do not go you hurt me so
I got something to show you
