Jim Reeves - Poor Little Doll lyrics

rate me

Poor little doll, you're too young for tears

I'm in love with you, honey, up to my ears

I know that you go for somebody else

But he's gonna drop you, he told me himself

Poor little doll, like sun is your smile

But there will be tears in just a short while

Don't let him hurt you and tear down your world

Oh, don't you wanna be my girl

Don't you want to move right into my heart

Don't give those blue tears a chance to start

A love true as mine should'nt be overlooked

I'll let the world see that you've got me hooked

No kissin' in corners like he wants to do

'Cause nobody hides a love that is true

To him you're a plaything, to me you're a pearl

Oh, don't you wanna be my girl

Don't you want to move right into my heart

Don't give those blue tears a chance to start

A love true as mine should'nt be overlooked

And I'll let the world see that you've got me hooked

No kissin' in corners like he wants to do

'Cause nobody hides a love that is true

To him you're a plaything, to me you're a pearl

So, don't you wanna be my girl

Yes, don't you wanna be my girl
