About The Song
“Little Darlin'” is a famous song by The Diamonds, a Canadian doo-wop group. The song “Little Darlin'” was written by Maurice Williams, who was the leader of the Gladiolas at the time. He wrote the song when he was 16 years old and drew inspiration from a girl who was also the subject of the Gladiolas’ previous hit “Stay.” According to Williams, he was deeply in love with this girl but couldn’t make the relationship work. He expressed his regret in the song and attempted to win her back. The Diamonds recorded and released a popular version of “Little Darlin'” in 1957, reaching number two on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The song “Little Darlin'” by The Diamonds is a classic love song with themes of longing, nostalgia, and regret. The lyrics of this doo-wop tune convey a man’s heartfelt plea to his past lover, referred to as “little darlin’,” to return to him. He expresses his deep love and admission of past mistakes, while also promising a rosy future together. The song’s lyrics and meaning go beyond a simple love song, and it captures the emotions and experiences that come with love and the recognition of our own fallibility. The song’s infectious harmonies and nostalgic charm have secured its place as a classic in the annals of popular music.

Lyrics
[Dave Somerville]:
Ah ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya, ya ya ya
Hey, little darlin’
Oh, little darlin’
Oh ho where are you
My lover, I was wrong-ah
To try to love you
Ah ooh ah ooh ah ohh ah
No way-ah
That my love-ah
Was just for you
For only you
[Spoken by Bill Reed]:
My darlin’, I need you
To call my own and never do wrong
To hold in mine your little hand
I’ll know too soon that all is so grand
Please hold my hand
[Sung by Dave Somerville]:
My dear-ah, I was wrong-ah
To try to love you
Ah ooh ah ooh ah ohh ah
No way-ah
That my love-ah
Was just for you
For only you
