I wanna tell you a story Our Ray boy was once in love I wanna tell you a story Our Ray boy was once in love And how the girl that I loved Taught me of the happiness I dreamed of She called me fine, sweet and mellow But that didn't mean a thing She called me fine, sweet and mellow But that didn't mean a thing Because I knew when she whispered love That meant a watch brings with her diamond ring I did mind my baby once If she'd only played fair with me I did mind my baby's once If she played fair with me She took advantage of my goodness And made a pitiful fool out of me Baby, go ahead, go ahead
