Pretty as a midsummer's morn,
they call her dawn.
<chorus>
Dawn,
go away i'm no good for you.
oh dawn,
stay with him, he'll be good to you.
hang on,
hang on to you.
think,
what a big man he'll be.
think,
of the places you'll see.
now think what the future would be with a poor boy like me.
dawn go away,
please go away.
although i know,
i want you to stay.
dawn go away,
please go away.
baby, don't cry.
it's better this way.
ahh, ahh, ah.
ohh-ohh-oh.
<chorus>
Dawn,
go away back where you belong.
girl we can't,
change the places where we were born.
before you say,
that you want me.
i want you to think,
what your family would say.
think,
what your throwing away.
now think what the future would be with a poor boy like me.
meee-ee.
<chorus>
Dawn,
go away i'm no good for you.
dawn,
go away i'm no good for you.
