LaVern Baker - Why Baby Why lyrics

(Doo-wop, doo-wop doo-wop, doo-wop)

Each time I ask you, "Do you love me?"
You tell me, "Darlin', yes, I care"
But when I put my arms around you
I get a feelin' that's so hard to bear

Why, baby, why do you treat me this way?

And when I turn my head to kiss you
You always turn away and sigh
Is that the way to treat the one you love?
It almost makes me want to cry

Why, baby, why do you treat me this way?

Yay, yay, yay you gotta make your mind up
Tell me what you gonna do
And if you gonna love me, baby
You got to love me true
Yeah, true, oh, yeah, oh, whoa, whoa

Each time I call you on the phone
You tell me, "Ain't nobody home"
You tell me, "Baby, I was sleepin'"
And I wanted to be left alone"

Why, baby, why do you treat me this way?

Why, baby, why do you treat me this way?

(Doo-wop, doo-wop, Doo-wop, doo-wop) Why?
(Doo-wop, doo-wop) Mm hmm
(Doo-wop, doo-wop) Why?
