Well the very first time that I saw you there

you know I couldn't believe my eyes

I thought I was the winner of the Price is Right

and they let me keep every prize



I've never been famous as a ladies man

I'm not known as a crazy guy

In fact I've never made the papers over nothin' at all

I think it's time somebody gave me a try



Baby, be mine tonight

and this ol' world will turn out alright

Just to find you took a whole lifetime

I could lose you in a minute's time

Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight

Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight



I don't know if you've ever been in love before,

but I think this is my very first time

I wish someone could tell me what my next move is

I'm afraid I'm falling way behind



I know you've been around about as much as I have

When the lights go out we'll see

You can further your education all your life

Honey, just don't make a fool out of me



Baby, be mine tonight

and this ol' world will turn out alright

Just to find you took a whole lifetime

I could lose you in a minute's time

Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight

Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight



I've been left alone

I've been on the streets so long

I feel like I'm falling

or sinking in quicksand

Throw me out a line

Be a special friend of mine

I would love to take you home,

if I only had a home



Baby, be mine tonight

and this ol' world will turn out alright

Just to find you took a whole lifetime

I could lose you in a minute's time

Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonig
