There were fourteen reasons for sayin' goodbye
Like the look on her face and the look in her eye
And the way that she broke the man down
Left the man in pieces here on sinkin' ground
There were fourteen nights when she didn't come by
Fourteen days when she left the man wondering why
he even bothered to try
So baby bye bye
Chorus:
On the outside
Baby's such a pretty girl
On the inside baby ain't so pretty
pretty soon she'll find a lonely little world
And there'll be one less man that the girl can bring down
One less man with his eyes on the ground
And his heart in his hands for the take
No more promises for baby to break
There'll be one less man with a tear in his eye
One less man who'll be hangin' round
Wondering why he even bothered to try
So baby bye bye
(Chorus)
And there be one less man that the girl can count on
One less man she'll find hangin' strong
To the dream that she could never change now
Comes to change and baby don't know how
Baby's such a pretty girl
There'll be one less man with a tear in his eye
One less man who'll be hangin' round
Wondering why he even bothered to try
So baby bye bye
