Well I heard the other day from some people who passed this way
They were saying you were untrue I love you baby no matter what you do
They say you'll leave me and I'm just a fool
All I'll ever be is your footstool
But I believe oh honey right now I believe in you oh yeah now

They say you're bad so bad but you're the best girl old Jerry ever had
Love me and leave me that's what they say I love you baby yeah come what may
They say you'll leave me and it won't be long
I'm gonna wake up one morning Lord I'm gonna find you gone
But I believe oh honey right now honey I believe in you oh yeah
[ piano ]
Well they say you're just plain bad
Well honey I say this you're the best girl that I ever had
Oh don't leave me don't leave me honey
They say you'll soon be gone that's what they say
Oh I'll love you baby yeah come what may
Honey I want you to hang around here and be with old Jerry just one more day
Cause I believe oh I believe I believe in you yes I believe
