Hope ya doan mind ‘at it was a longer li’l bit ‘an I planned, ‘cuz I minded enuf fer th’both o’us!! Please doan fergit ‘at everthang I do is fer ya, so’s there’s ne’er any call fer rilin’.

Baby mine, doan ya e’er cry
Baby mine, dry yer eyes
Rest yer head close ta my heart,
Nere ta part, baby o’mine

Little one, when ya play
Pay no heed what they say
Let yer eyes sparkle ‘n shine,
Nere a tear, baby o’mine

If’n they knew all ‘bout ya,
They’d end up lovin’ ya, too
All those same people who scold ya,
(Beauticians, communists, florists…)
What they’d give jest for th’right ta hold ya!

From yer head down ta yer toes,
Yer so much, goodness knows!
’N yer s'precious ta me,
Sweet as kinn be, baby o’mine.
