La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la, la, la 
 La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la, la, la 
 La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la la, la, la 
    Now that I've lost everything to you 
 You say you wanna start something new 
 And it's breakin' my heart you're leavin' 
 Baby, I'm grieving   
 But if you wanna leave, take good care 
 I hope you have a lot of nice things to wear 
 But, then, a lot of nice things turn bad out there   
 Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world 
 It's hard to get by just upon a smile 
 Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world 
 I'll always remember you like a child, girl   
 You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do 
 And it's breaking my heart in two 
 Because I never wanna see you sad, girl 
 Don't be a bad girl   
 But if you wanna leave, take good care 
 I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there 
 But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware   
 Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world 
 It's hard to get by just upon a smile 
 Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world 
 I'll always remember you like a child, girl   
 La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la, la, la 
 La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la, la, la 
 La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la la, la, la 
 Baby, I love you   
 But if you wanna leave, take good care 
 I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there 
 But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware   
 Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world 
 It's hard to get by just upon a smile 
 Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world 
 I'll always remember you like a child, girl   
 Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world 
 It's hard to get by just upon a smile 
 Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world 
 And I'll always remember you like a child, girl
