Don’t Lyrics
Don't, don't, that's what you say
Each time that I hold you this way
When I feel like this and I want to hold you
Baby, don't say don't
Don't, don't leave my embrace
For here in my arms is your place
When the night grows cold and I want to hold you
Baby, don't say don't
If you think that this is just a game
I'm playing
If you think that I don't mean
Every word I'm saying
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't feel that way
I'm your love and your's I will stay
This you can believe
I will never leave you
Heaven knows I won't
Baby, don't say don't
Each time that I hold you this way
When I feel like this and I want to hold you
Baby, don't say don't
Don't, don't leave my embrace
For here in my arms is your place
When the night grows cold and I want to hold you
Baby, don't say don't
If you think that this is just a game
I'm playing
If you think that I don't mean
Every word I'm saying
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't feel that way
I'm your love and your's I will stay
This you can believe
I will never leave you
Heaven knows I won't
Baby, don't say don't

Genius Annotation
“Elvis was rock'n'roll. He came from the poverty and the pain.” – Link Wray
This is a heartfelt tribute to The King, and Wray delivers it in a dry baritone that would make even Elvis smile. You’ll find the ending is done in signature Link Wray style.
– Link Wray performs at The Continental Club in Austin, Texas shortly before his death in 2005.
