Oh! Darling, please believe me,
I’ll never do you no harm,
Believe me when I tell you
I’ll never do you no harm.

Oh! Darling, if you leave me,
I’ll never make it alone.
Believe me when I beg you,
Don’t ever leave me alone.

When you told me you didn’t need me anymore,
Well, you know I nearly broke down and cried.
When you told me you didn’t need me anymore,
Well, you know I nearly broke down and died.

Oh! Darling, if you leave me,
I’ll never make it alone.
Believe me when I tell you,
I’ll never do you no harm.

Believe me darling, when you told me you didn’t need me anymore,
Well, you know I nearly broke down and cried.
When you told me you didn’t need me anymore,
Well, you know I nearly broke down and died.

Oh! Darling, please believe me,
I’ll never let you down.
Oh believe me darling, believe me when I tell you,
I’ll never do you no harm.
