where is my baby

it's a beautiful morning

looks like its going to be a beautiful day

but where is my baby?

oh where is my baby

i breathe in a breath of fresh air

oh but again i say

where is my baby

everything seems so right

except for most important thing in my life

but where is my baby

where can she be

won't somebody please

send my baby back to me

boss told me in three days

i'd be up for a raise

oh but where is my baby

oh where is my baby

going to look for a new car

like that raven i saw

but where is my baby

what went wrong i couldn't say

i tried to please her

in every way

oh but where is my baby

where can she be

won't somebody please

send my baby back to me

a year has come and gone

since i've been all alone

lord and i still oh i still haven't seen my baby

i still hope and pray

that she'll return someday

but where is my baby

i bought a house i thought she would like

in case she'd ever decide to be my wife

and then the word came

you know by telephone

said you don't want to see you baby

she's better off gone

said while in a travel

a curiosity

led her into the wrong hands

into a land of fantasy

now she hangs out

where those folks do

with the problems she'll never shake

said your baby's through

no

no

no i don't want to hear it
