The Supremes Come see About me Lyrics:
I've been cryin' (whoo-whoo),
'Cause I'm lonely (for you).
Smiles have all turned (to tears),
But tears won't wash away the fear,
That you're never, ever gonna return,
To ease the fire that within me burns.
It keeps me cryin', baby, for you.
Keeps me sighin', baby, for you.
So won't you hurry? Come on boy,
See about me (come see about me).
See about your baby (come see about me).
I've given up my friends just (for you.)
My friends are gone and you ((have too)).
No peace shall I find,
Until you come back and be mine.
No matter what you do or say,
I'm gonna love you anyway.
Keep on cryin', baby, for you.
I'm gonna keep sighin', baby. for you
So come on hurry. Come on
And see about me (come see about me).
See about your baby (come see about me).
[Short instrumental break.]
Sometime's up (up, mm-hmm.)
Sometime's down (down, mm-hmm.)
My life's so uncertain, hon,
With you not around (hmm-mmm).
From my arms you maybe out of reach,
But my heart says you're here to keep.

Keeps me cryin', baby, for you.
Keep on, keep on cryin', baby for you.
So won't you hurry? Come on boy,
See about me (come see about me).
See about your baby (come see about me).
You know I'm so lonely (come see about me).
I love you only (come see about me).
See about your baby (ome see about me).
[Fade.]
Hurry, hurry (come see about me).
Keeps me cryin', sighin' (come see about...)

[1] When The Supremes made their Motown debut in 1961, they were Diana Ross,
Mary Wilson & Florence Ballard. In mid-1967 Ballard left the group and was
replaced by Cindy Birdsong, after which they were billed as Diana Ross &
the Supremes. Ross left the group toward the end of 1969 (with the
execption of one show in Las Vegas in January 1970), to pursue a solo
career. She was replaced by Jean Terrell and the three of them recorded
under the name, The Supremes, until 1977 with a few personnel changes along
the way. Only Mary Wilson stayed with the group from beginning to the end.
