Wells, Mary - You Lost The Sweetest Boy Lyrics
Oh yeah, Oh yeah, Oh yeah, Oh yeah
You had the sweetest boy in the world
Without a doubt you were the envy of every girl
You're the kind that's never satisfied
But the tables turned (the tables turned)
'Cause his words tell you're done
Now the hurt's on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
You thought it was fun to make the boys run
You lost the sweetest boy that you had that time
The sweetest boy that you had
'Cause now he's hangin' around my door
Now you're in misery 'cause you lost him to me
Now the hurt's on you, now the hurt's on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
You made bets, any boy you could get
You lost the sweetest boy that you had that time
The sweetest boy that you had
Oh yeah, Oh yeah, Oh yeah, Oh yeah
Yes, your loss is my gain
'Cause straight into my arms he came
You want every boy to pass you by
Now the hurt's on you, now the hurt's on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
Now tears of regret just covered your face
You lost the sweetest boy that you had that time
The sweetest boy that you had
You lost the sweetest boy that you had that time
The sweetest boy that you had

Wells, Mary You Lost The Sweetest Boy Comments
old school!
Mary Wells was astounding. Loved everything she ever sang. The only other solo female singer that even came close, to my mind, was Sade 30 years later.
Love that choir ! It's obvious that the great soaring female voice- GOT TO BE Flo !!
There is a French version of this song...Tu perds le plus merveilleux garcon. I learned the French version before I found the English version. The Velvetlettes did the French version.
Mary Wells -- Lead vocal
The Supremes (Florence Ballard, Diana Ross, and Mary Wilson) & The Temptations (Paul Williams, Eddie Kendricks, Melvin Franklin, Elbridge Bryant, and Otis Williams) -- Background vocals
The Funk Brothers -- All instrumentation
HOLLAND DOZIER HOLLAND AND MARY WELLS...........PURE HEAVEN !!!!!!!!!
i had forgotten that we sang the back ground on Sweetest Boy!
touch
Mary Wilson can hear ALL 3 Supremes loud..Love the 3 part Harmony on the oooew and Oh yeahs. Also on Can l get a witness and Wonderful One by Marvin Gaye.
mary wells was the first ladie of motown.
Feels great to hear her again! Loved her!
Good song. If Mary Wells is singing it I'm listening. 'Nuff said. RIP
My one of my favorites by the late great Mary Wells!
Love this song and loved the album.
love this song. Orchestration is similar to Heat Wave
Mary had two fantastic years with solid hits, all with Smokey Robinsons producing and writing skills, then this one came out. Instead of Smokey it was Holland Dozier Holland who were still emerging. It sure sounds like Smokeys work to me. Hit #22 in 1963
One of my favorites by Mary Wells...thank you!
