Verse:

No one in this world will ev -er take your place,

E -ven tho' you lead my heart a mer -ry chase;

And all the while you're in -no -cent -ly play -ing

With -in a smile, my lone -ly heart keeps say -ing:

 

Chorus:

Cher -ry, Cher -ry, ain't it a shame,

That you can't be sweet as your name;

Al -ways flirt -in', hav -in' your fun,

Nev -er cer -tain if I'm the one;"

But if I am, I'll hang a -roun',

Till your grow up and set -tle down;

But will ya, while your heart's on a spree,

Cher -ry, save your lov -ing for me.
