where were you baby - don mclean lyrics
where were you baby? – (josh white)
as recorded by donmclean
i looked through every barroom
and i searched from coast to coast
you were scarce as low-cost housing
baby when i needed you most
and where were you baby, when my heart went out?
you left me ba___by, in all this darkness and doubt
now i peeked through fancy boudoirs
and i peeked through window grates
i only saw republicans, romancing southern states
and where were you baby, when my heart went out?
you left me ba___by, in all this darkness and doubt
now i tried to replace you with a streetwalker named desire
but prices up so high, h-ll i couldn’t afford to try her
it takes you my baby, baby, baby — to put my body out
you left me baby, in all___ this darkness and doubt
but tonight i think i’m gonna take some good advice
i’m gonna look around and find somebody that’s a really nice
well perhaps a banker’s daughter and if her papa’s a cuss
well i hope to do to her what her papa does to us
and we’ll have fancy shack and a fancy cadillac
and she’ll be studying to be, a nymphomaniac
and we’ll have a little rye and we’ll play a little gin
we’ll have another rye and we’ll play another gin
and then we’ll have another rye just to get a little glow
have another rye just to make the conversation flow
and then we’ll have another rye and we’ll play a little gin
we’ll have another rye and we’ll tune some music in
and then we’ll have another gin… and we’ll play a little rye…
and we’ll suddenly realize that we’re getting kind of high
and so we’ll turn the lights down low… to keep the bulbs from getting hot
and we’ll play a little game called . “yes?”…”no!” …
why not?
but tonight i think i’m gonna find me something swell
so i can wake up in the morning… miserable as h-ll
now when b-tter costs a dollar, bread costs more than cake
come back soon cause, babe, think of what a gal like you could make
yes come back baby, baby, baby — don’t ever say that we’re through
cos this time, pretty baby. i’d like to walk right out on you!
