Need lyrics to "Take Good Care of My Baby". Don't know if this is the actual title of the song. It starts like this: Take good care of my baby Be just as kind as you can be

This was on a commercial and my baby loved it. I'd like to have all the words to sing it to him.

Sorry I don't have the words. This was a late 50's/early 60's chart hit for someone like Bobby Vinton/Bobby Vee/Neil Sedaka. You might find a recording in a used music store. I'm pretty sure you have the title right.

Aha! That's a job for Lyrics World [drum roll, please] - Click here for your song.
Next time, though, please remember to put the song title in the title of your lyrics request thread. We get too many threads that get lost, because they're all called "Lyrics Request." Thanks.

Take Good Care Of My Baby
-Artist: Bobby Vee from "Very Best Of Bobby Vee"-United Artists-UA LA332E
-peak Billboard position # 1 in 1961
-Words and Music by Gerry Goffin and Carole King

My tears are falling
'Cause you've taken her away
And though it really hurts me so
There something that I got to say

Take good care of my baby
Please don't ever make her blue
Just tell her that you love her
Make sure you're thinking of her
In everything you say and do

Take good care of my baby
Now don't you ever make her cry
Just let your love surround her
Paint rainbows all around her
Don't let her see the cloudy sky

Once upon a time
That little girl was mine
If I had been true
I know she'd never been with you

So take good care of my baby
Be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her
Just send my baby back home to me

Take good care of my baby
Be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her
Just send my baby back home to me

Take good care of my baby
Take good care of my baby
Take good care of my baby
