Accompaniment:
Lyrics
- You’re just a little vampire
But you are playing with fire
When you start fooling with me, dear
I’ll make you realize that
I’m just a little love demon
I’ll make you want me some day
I’ll make you sorry dear
For all you have done
You’re gonna ask me to stay
Chorus
Boo-hoo-hoo some beautiful morning
Boo-hoo-hoo you’ll find me gone away
And when you wake up and find
That you’ve been unkind
Just bear this in mind, your heart it will pine
And you will want me back some day, dear
Boo-hoo-hoo then you will start crying
Boo-hoo-hoo your tears will fall, and that ain’t all
You tried to tell me dear, that you were fooling
You know you surely need
Some darn good schooling
Boo-hoo-hoo you’re gonna cry when I’m gone
- You ask me dear, to forgive you
You write and say that you feel blue
I told you once you’d be sorry
I hope you realize that
I gave you all of my love, dear
But you left me just the same
I told you some day you would come back to me
Now tell me who is to blame?
