Baby Baby all the Time



Once I had a man, sweet as he could be
Once I had a man and he was right for me
Kind of curly hair, eyes so soft and true
That you couldn't help but care
When he looked at you
He called me baby
Baby all the time

He said, "Baby can't you see?"
"Baby understand?"
"Baby you're for me"
"Oh won't you take my hand?"
But I push him away
Wouldn't let him near
Pushed him far away
And now I'm wishing I could hear him
Call me baby, baby all the time

It's so lonely through the day
Lonely through the night
Lonely, lonely hours without that
Man I held so tight
Lord I pray that you will listen to my plea
Keep him close to you so he'll come back to me
And call me baby, baby all the time
Baby, baby all the time

Hit That Jive Jack

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Going downtown to see a man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Time and time waits for no man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

Standing on a corner
All full of jive
But you know that you're my boy
So I'm forced to give you five
Shadde yadda

Hit that jive Jack
Put it in your pocket till I get back
Going downtown to see a man
And I ain't got time to shake your hand

You're Looking at Me

Who had the boys turning hand springs?
Crazy to lov her claimed she
Who could so misunderstand things?
You're looking at me

Who was so sure of her conquest?
Sure as a human could be
Who wound up losing the contest?
You're looking at me
You're looking at me

Where is that girl?
Who was certain her charms couldn't fail
Where is that girl?
Believed every word of this ridiculous tale

Who was so childishly flattered?
Thought she'd swept him off his feet
Who woke to find her dreams shattered?
Might I repeat
Might I repeat for you
Needn't strain your eyes
To see what I want you to see
That's right
You're looking at me

I'm Thru with Love

I'm thru with love
I'll never fall again
Said adieu to love
Don't ever call again
For I must have you or no one
That's why I'm thru with love

I've locked my heart
I keep my feelings there
I have stocked my heart
Like an icy Frigadere
For I need to care for no one
That's why I'm thru with love

Why did you lead me
To think that you cared
You didn't need me
For you have your share
Of slaves around you
To hound you and swear
Their deep devotion
Emotion

???

By the spring
And all it meant to me
It could never be
The things that used to be
For I must have you or no one
That's why I'm thru with love

Deed I Do

Do I want you?
Oh my do I
Honey, indeed I do

Do I need you?
Oh my do I
Honey, deed I do

I'm glad that I'm the one who found you
That's why I'm always hanging around you

Do I love you?
Oh my do I
Honey, deed I do

A Blossom Fell

A blossom fell from off a tree
It settled softly on the lips you turn to me
The gypsies say and I know why
A falling blossom only touches lips that lie

A blossom fell and very soon
I saw you kissing someone new
Beneath the moon
I thought you'd love me
You said you love me
We planned together
To dream forever
The dream has ended
For true love died
The day a blossom fell
And touched two lips that lied

If I Had You

I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while
I could turn the gray skies to blue
If I had you

I could leave my old days behind
Leave all my pals and never mind
There is nothing I couldn't do
If I had you

I could climb a snow-capped mountain
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross a burning desert
If I had you by my side

I could be a queen dear on ground
Humble or poor
Rich or renown
There is nothing I couldn't do
If I had you

When I Grow too Old to Dream

When I grow too old to dream, I will have you to remember.
When I grow too old to dream, your love will live in my heart.
So kiss me my sweet, and so let us part.
When I grow too old to dream, your love will live in my heart.

When I grow, when I grow too old to dream, I will have you to remember.
When I grow, when I grow too old to dream
Your love will live, will live in my heart.
So kiss me, my sweet, and so let us part.
When I grow, when I grow too old
sh-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya to dream! Your love will live in my heart.

So kiss me my sweet! And so let us part
When I grow too old to dream, your love will live in my heart

I Don't Know Enough About You

I know a little bit
About a lot of things
But I don't know enough about you
Just when I think you're mine
You try a different line and
Baby, what can I do?

I read the latest news
No buttons on my shoes
Baby, I'm confused about you
You've got me in a spin and
What a spin I'm in
Cause I don't know enough about you

Jack-of-all-trades, master of none
And isn't it a shame
I'm so sure that you'd be good for me
If you'd only play my game

You know I went to school and
I'm nobody's fool
That is to say until I met you
You've got me in a spin and
What a spin I'm in
Cause I don't know enough about you

I know a bit about biology
A little more about psychology
I'm a little gem in geology
But I don't know enough about you

I Miss You So

Those happy hours I spent with you
That lovely afterglow
Most of all, I miss you so

Your sweet caresses, each rendezvous
You voice so soft and low
Most of all, I miss you so

You once filled my heart with
No regrets, no fears
Now you'll find my heart
Filled to the top with tears

I'll always love you and ant you, too
How much you'll never know
Most of all, I miss you so
