You Gotta Be My Baby

Oh, you said you was my baby

Now I know that you're my baby

But it seems to me you got rovin' eyes

If you're gonna be my baby

Then you gotta be my baby

You can't keep a finger in two different fires

I remember how you pleaded

When you told me that you needed

All my love and I believed, without a doubt

So, if you're gonna be my baby

Then you gotta be my baby

And you gotta leave them kissin' cousins out

Oh, when you're high steppin', I'm a crawlin' low

(I get suspicious, and I'm a gonna tell you so)

If you wanna be my baby

Then you gotta be my baby

And be nobody's baby but mine

Now, I heard there was another

So, I went and asked your mother

If anybody hung around 'sides me

She gave me no satisfaction

So, now I can't take no action

But, I think that I'll just hang around and see

If you wanna be my baby

Then you're gonna be my baby

You gotta come to me, and tell me so

If you wanna be my baby

Then you gotta be my baby

I'm tired of waitin' round so, let me know

Oh, when you're high steppin', I'm a crawlin' low

(I get suspicious and I'm gonna tell you so)

If you wanna be my baby

Then you gotta be my baby

And be nobody's baby but mine
