Baby Blues

They call me a baby
That's what you are honey
They buy me baby shoes
That's where all daddy's money goes

You know you're growin' too fast honey
I look so young and happy
But have you heard the news
No baby what kind of news you talkin' about
Just like a grown-up
A baby gets the blues

Ah my poor little baby's got the blues

Why don't you pick up your dolly
And have a friendly chat
I did daddy but you know what happened
No what happened
Well I picked up my dolly
To have a friendly chat
Well what happened honey come on now tell daddy
Out came the sawdust
And left my dolly flat
Ah don't you worry you know daddy can fix that

Sometimes I see a fella
The kind to catch your eye
Yeah but when I use my baby blues
I always get one reply

You're only a baby baby
How did you know
Why don't you run and play
With that handsome fella daddy
My little baby I wish you'd stay that way

If I had three wishes
I know the three you'd choose
I'd wish for longer dresses
You'd wish for high-heeled shoes
I'd wish to grow up
The baby wants to lose
Those aggravatin' always waitin' never datin' baby blues
