Don't Call Me Sweetie ('Cause I'm Bitter)    (1957)

(Sweet, sweetie, sweetie sweet sweetie)
(Sweet, sweetie, sweetie sweet sweetie)
(Sweet, sweetie, sweetie sweet sweetie)
Don't call me sweetie
'Cause I'm bitter
Bitter 'bout the way you're treatin' me

You leave me all alone
Night after night
Then you think
A little sweet talk
Makes everything right

I used to be your one and only
Now I'm only someone you ignore
So get your lips away from me
I'm as bitter as I can be
And don't call me sweetie anymore

(You know you've got it all wrong, now)
(Now, I call you sweetie 'cause I love you)
(You don't believe me, but it's true)
(The reason I left you alone)
(You made me mad one night)
(And I give you the sweet talk, honey)
(Just to make things right)

You know that I used to be
Your one and only
Now I'm only someone you ignore
So get your lips away from me
I'm as bitter as I can be
And don't call me sweetie anymore

(Sweet, sweetie, sweetie sweet sweetie)

No don't call me sweetie anymore
(Sweet, sweetie, sweetie sweet sweetie of mine)
