you must have been a beautiful baby

you must have been a beautiful baby

you must have been a wonderful child

when you were only startin'

to go to kindergarten

i bet you drove the little boys wild!

an' when it came to winning blue ribbons

you must have shown the other kids how

i can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize

i bet you made the cutest bow!

oh! you must have been a beautiful baby

'cause baby look at you now

does your dad appreciate

that you are merely great?

does your mother realize

you're such a treat for the eyes?

you must have been a beautiful baby

you must have been a wonderful child

when you were only startin'

to go to kindergarten

i bet you drove the little boys wild!

an' when it came to winning blue ribbons

you must have shown the other kids how

i can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize

i bet you made the cutest bow!

oh! you must have been a beautiful baby

'cause baby look at you now

baby look at you now
