Lyrics Brook Benton

Brook Benton

For My Baby

When you see me smile

I'm smiling for my baby

When you hear me sigh

I'm sighing for my baby

When I step out

As sharp as a tack

The girls whistle at me

But I don't look back

Cause everything I do

I do it for my baby

And every time I dream

I dream about my baby

And every time I scheme

I'm scheming for my baby

I know my baby

She's never hard to find

Because she's always on my mind

And everything I do, so help me

I do it for my baby

My baby, she's something else

Let me tell you, she's fine

I'm glad I belong to her

And she's mine, all mine

Every vow I make

I make it for my baby

And every dime I take

Oh, I just take em for my baby

Now when you see us

Strolling down the avenue

Just keep your eyes

Off you know who

Cause everything I do

Oh, I do it for my baby

When you see me walking alone

Trying to make it to my baby

When you hear me singing a song

I'm just singing for my baby
