Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around
You just might lose the best thing you ever found
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around

Oh, the nights are long and twice as cold
Without my baby's hand to hold
My happiness is fading away

Just like a thief I tried to steal a kiss
From another pretty miss
My baby was the price that I paid


Now listen fellas (think twice) think twice
If you have cheating on your mind (watch your step)
Remember the punishment will fit the crime

Chorus

Oh, I hope it's not too late for me
To right my wrong and foolish deed
I'm gonna crawl all the way back on my knees

And if that don't do I'll get the moon
And set it down in front of her
Oh, before I even say please

Oh, if I get one more chance my life will be as good as new
And I would not forget the days
The sun will not shine through

Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you
Don't let your baby catch you fooling around
Take me back, take me back, take me back yeah

Don't let her, your baby catch you
You just might lose the best thing you ever found
Tell 'em 'bout it mike

If you're crazy 'bout your baby
And she's crazy 'bout you
Just think of what you'll do to her
If she was untrue

Chorus
