Don't Do It Lyrics – The Band

Don't Do It Text

---

Oh, baby, don't you do it, don't do it
Don't you break by heart
Please, don't do it
Don't you break by heart

I sacrificed to make you happy
Kept nothin' for myself
Now you wanna leave me
For the love of someone else

I cried in the song
Whether I'm right or wrong
I need ya, baby
Fer ta keep on keepin' on

You know I tried to do my best
I tried to do my best, don't do it
Don't you break by heart
Please, don't do it
Don't you break by heart

My biggest mistake was lovin' you too much
And lettin' ya know
Now you got me where you want me
And a you won't let me go

If my heart was made of glass
Well, then you'd surely see
How much heartaches and misery
Girl, you been causin' me

But I been tryin' to do my best
But I've tried to do my best, don't do it
Don't you break by heart
Please, don't do it
Don't you break by heart

I go down to the river
And there I'll be
I'm gonna jump in, girl
But you don't care about me

Open up your eyes
Can't you see I love ya
Open up your heart, girl
Can't you see I need ya

Oh, baby, don't do it, do it, do it
Don't you break my heart
Please, don't do it
Don't you break by heart

My biggest mistake was lovin' you too much
And lettin' ya know
Now you got me where you want me
And a you won't let me go

If my heart was made of glass
Then you'd surely see
How much heartaches and misery
Girl, you been causin' me

But I been tryin' to do my best
A you know I've tried to do my best, don't do it
Don't you break by heart
Please, don't do it
Don't you break by heart
