Don't Deceive Me

Ruth Brown


People are talking all over town
They say you're tired of me
Going to put me down

Please don't leave me
Don't deceive me
Please don't go

You know I love you
You know it's true
That's why you treat me
The way you do

You said you loved me
You said you loved me
Please don't go

When I first met you
No, I didn't love you
I just tried to treat you nice

Since I've been with you
Yes, I've learned to love you
And I want you all the
Rest of my life

I used to call you my lover boy
You were always my pride and joy

Please don't leave me
You know you'll grieve me
Please don't go
