Baby Talk

Oh I care for you, honey, at my own expense

But something's spoiling my sentiments

You open your mouth and it makes no sense

All you ever give me is baby talk

You're a fine grown woman, and that's a fact

But who could tell from the way you act

When I pull up the car and we climb in the back

All you ever give me is baby talk

I love sweet nothings, sitting in the dark

And I like to bill and coo

But it breaks my heart the minute you start

On goo goo goo and a-coochee coo

You drive me crazy, where will it end

I feel embarassed in front of my friends

It's a wonderful thing that you learned how to walk

All you ever give me is baby talk

Oh well I love sweet nothings, sitting in the dark

And I like to bill and coo

But it breaks my heart the minute you start on

Goo goo goo and a-coochee coo

I'm sending you back to nursery school

When you start talking you sound like a fool

You can't even eat with a knife and a fork

And all you ever give me is baby talk

All you ever give me is baby talk

Well all you ever give me is ....
