I don't wanna be the one, to make you worry, oh no. I don't wanna be the one, to make you cry. I just wanna be the one, to see you happy, oh yeah, even if I gotta be the one, to say goodbye. Oh well, darling, I don't wanna be the one, to keep you from living, oh no. And I don't wanna be the one, who seems all wrong. I just wanna be the one, to see you loving, and giving, Ohhh, even if I gotta be the one, to say so long. You know it's a big world, and it's a short life, and time will slip away, whether we're crying, or were laughing, but I'd sure like to see you smile, today. Oh well, darling now-- I don't wanna be the one, who asks for too much. Oh no. I don't wanna be the one, to make you blue. I just wanna be the one, with the right touch. Oh yeah. Well, even if I gotta be the one to say tootle do. Tootle do, tootle do baby. I don't wanna be the one to say tootle do, my darling. No, I don't want to be the one to say it. Tootle do now. I don't wanna be the one. No, I don't wanna be the one.
