Once I had a gal,

As sweet as she could be.

Once I had a gal,

And she was right for me.

Kinda sandy hair,

Eyes so soft and blue

That you couldnt help but care

When she looked at you.

She called me "baby"...

"baby", all the time.





She said, "baby, cant you see?

"baby, understand

"baby, youre for me,

Wont you take my hand? "

But I pushed her away,

Wouldnt let her near

Pushed her far away

Now Im wishing I could hear her

Call me "baby"...

"baby", all the time.

Its so lonely through the day,

Lonely through the night,

Lonely, lonely hours

Without that gal I held so tight.

Lord, I pray that you

Will listen to my plea.

Keep her close to you

So shell come back to me,

And call me "baby"...

"baby", all the time.





Baby...

Baby, all the time.
