Lean, Baby - Remastered

Do-do-do, do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-ooh

My lean baby, tall and thin

Five feet seven, of bones and skin

But when she tells me maybe she loves me

I feel as mellow as a fellow can be

She's so skinny, she's so drawn

When she stands sideways, you would think that she's gone

But when she calls me, "baby", I feel fine

To think she's frantically, romantically mine

She's slender, but she's tender

She makes my heart surrender

And every night when I hold her tight

The feeling is nice, my arms can go around twice

My lean baby, she's so slim

A broomstick's wider, but not as trim

And when she starts to kiss me, then I know

I love her so, I'll never, ever, let her go, no

My lean baby, strange to see

And all that nothing, it belongs to me

And though she may be scrawny, she's okay

Because I wouldn't want her any other way

And she's so skinny, she's so drawn

When she stands sideways, you would think that she's gone

But when she calls me, "baby", I feel fine

To think she's frantically, romantically mine

I chased her, and I caught her

Then a diamond ring, I bought her

Hey, the diamonds shine, the ring is so fine

But here is the twist, she wears it right on her wrist

My lean baby, she's so slim

A broomstick's wider, but not as trim

And when she starts to kiss me, then I know

I love her so, I'll never, ever, let her go

My lean baby, tall and thin

Do-do-do-do, do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do
