(words & music by arthur crudup)

My baby's long and tall,

She's like a cannonball.

Say, everytime she loves me,

Lordly, you can hear me squall.

She cried, ooo-wee.

I believe i'll change my mind.

She said, "i'm so glad i'm living".

I cried, "i'm so glad you're mine".



My baby knows just how

To treat me right.

Gives me plenty loving

Morning, noon, and night.

She cried, ooo-wee.

I believe i'll change my mind.

She said, "i'm so glad i'm living".

I cried, "i'm so glad you're mine".



When my baby does what she does to me,

I climb the highest mountain,

Dive in the deepest sea.

She cried, ooo-wee.

I believe i'll change my mind.

She said, "i'm so glad i'm living".

I cried, "i'm so glad you're mine".



My baby's lips are red

And sweet like wine,

And when she kisses me,

I get high every time.

She cried, oo-wee.

I believe i'll change my mind.

She said, "i'm so glad i'm living".

I cried, "i'm so glad you're mine".
