My Baby Took My Baby Away Songtext
von Bobby Bare, Jr.

He comes stumbling to the door with his bottle in hand
Screaming while he′s crying Now he's laughing again
Collapses on the couch in my den
Closes his eyes while his mumbling

Makes a mess of everything and you don′t care
Rolls around the kitchen in his underwear
Screaming all day -crying all night
Why am I all wrong while he's alright

My baby took my baby away
With his itty-bitty boots and his big fat face
I'm a long gone lonely daddy
While my baby took my baby away


Things have changed since he moved in
I′m so in love with you but you only love him
I′m getting jealous and I can't understand
How I lost you to this little man

He′s short he's sweet so many things I′ll never be
But you are my wife while I play second fiddle for the rest of my life

My baby took my baby away
With his itty-bitty boots and his big fat face
I'm a long gone lonely daddy
While my baby took my baby away

He ain′t got no job and he don't pay no rent
He just lays there giggling with slobber all over his chin
He has never told you a lie he has never made you sad enough to cry
You say his round belly is so fine and then you make fun of mine

My baby took my baby away
With his itty-bitty boots and his big fat face
I'm a long gone lonely daddy
While my baby took my baby away
