- If You Love Her Tell Her So
Go away, little girl, go away, little girl I'm not supposed to be alone with you I know that your lips are sweet But our lips must never meet I belong to someone else and I must be true Oh, go away, little girl, go away, little girl It's hurtin' me more each minute that you delay When you are near me like this You're much too hard to resist So, go away, little girl, before I beg you to stay Go away Please don't stay When you are near me like this You're much too hard to resist So, go away, little girl Call it a day, little girl Oh, please, go away, little girl Before I beg you to stay Go away
