There were fourteen reasons for sayin' goodbye Like the look on her face and the look in her eye And the way that she broke the man down Left the man in pieces here on sinkin' ground There were fourteen nights when she didn't come by Fourteen days when she left the man Wondering why he even bothered to try So baby bye bye [Chorus] On the outside Baby's such a pretty girl On the inside baby ain't so pretty Pretty soon she'll find a lonely little world And there'll be one less man that girl can bring down
One less man with his eyes on the ground And his heart in his hands for the take No more promises for baby to break There'll be one less man with a tear in his eye One less man who'll be hangin' 'round Wondering why he even bothered to try So baby bye bye [Chorus] And there'll be one less man that the girl can count on One less man she'll find hangin' strong To the dream that she could never change now Comes to change and baby don't know how Baby's such a pretty girl [Chorus]
