As I look out through my window, I can see the morning dew
And the people seem so happy. I wish that I could too
My life's become so gloom, so gloom, so gloom
If you get a good woman, be sure to treat her right
Or someone else will take her away from you one night
From arms that held her tight, held her tight, held her tight
Take good care of my baby, that's all I ask of you
Take good care of my baby and then I won't feel blue
No matter what you do, what you do, what you do
I think I've learned my lesson, but now the time's too late
Someone else has got my baby, someone else is feeling great
I sit all day and wait, sit and wait, sit and wait
As I think about the good times, feel tears come to my eye
Times when I could make her happy, just to be around by my side
Try to make you realize, realize, realize
Take good care of my baby, that's all I ask of you
Take good care of my baby and then I won't feel blue
Take good care of my baby, that's all I ask of you
Take good care of my baby and then I won't feel blue
