“Lady’s Baby”

Lady’s baby smiles and coos
Takes away my lonely blues
Baby’s mother cooks my meal
Warm and cool is really real

Runnin’ never was much fun
All it did was bring me down
Chasin’ ’round isn’t where it’s at
Tension puts you in the ground

Lady’s baby pulls my hair
Lets me know he’s really there
Baby’s mother touches me
And at last I really see

Runnin’ never was much fun
All it did was bring me down
Chasin’ ’round isn’t where it’s at
Tension puts you in the ground

Lady’s baby lets me know
Life was meant for movin’ slow
Baby’s mother knows this too
Lady, I love you
