Lyrics
Love's a baby dat grows up wild, An' he don' do what you want him to; Love ain' nobody's angel child, An' he won' pay any mind to you. One man gives me his diamon' stud, An' I won' give him a cigarette. One man treats me like I was mud An' what I got dat man c'n get. Dat's love! Dat's love! Dat's love! Dat's love! You go for me an' I'm taboo, But if yore hard to get I go for you, An' if I do, den you are through, boy, My baby, dat's de end of you, De end of you! So take your cue, boy, Don' say I didn't tell you true. I tol' you true, I tol' you truly, If I love you dat's de end of you! You go for me an' I'm taboo, But if yore hard to get I go for you, An' if I do, den you are through, boy, My baby, dat's de end of you, De end of you! So take your cue, boy, Don' say I didn't tell you true. I tol' you true, I tol' you truly, If I love you dat's de end of you! When your lovebird decides to fly Dere ain' no door dat you c'n close. She jus' pecks you a quick good-bye An' flicks de salt from her tail, an' goes. If you listen, den you'll get taught, An' here's your lesson for today: If I chase you, den you'll get caught, But once I got you I go my way! Dat's love! Dat's love! Dat's love! Dat's love! You go for me an' I'm taboo, But if yore hard to get I go for you, An' if I do, den you are through, boy, My baby, dat's de end of you, De end of you! So take your cue, boy, Don' say I didn't tell you true. I tol' you true, I tol' you truly, If I love you dat's de end of you!
