You're My Baby

(Johnny Cash)

ROY ORBISON (Sun 251, 1956)

I love that hair, long an' black

Hangin' down to the middle of your back

Don't cut it off whatever you do

I need it to run my fingers through

'Cause you're my baby, ah-ah, you're my sugar

Don't mean maybe, you're my baby

Got me a dollar that I saved

Saved it up for a rainy day

Everybody's callin' for bills that's due

But they don't catch me, I'll spend it on you

'Cause you're my baby, ah-ah, you're my sugar

Don't mean maybe, you're my baby

Got me a guitar, got a six strings

And a picker to make 'em ring

Every string's gotta know what to do

'Cause I'm gonna use 'em to serenade you

'Cause you're my baby, ah-ah, you're my sugar

Don't mean maybe, you're my baby

Well I had me a gal, she said she's mine

But she run around on me all the time

Now she's gone an' I'm glad we're through

'Cause I-I'm plum-flipped over you

'Cause you're my baby, ah-ah, you're my sugar

Don't mean maybe, you're my baby

Oh, baby-baby, yeah you're my baby

Well I don't mean maybe

You drive me crazy

I love you baby, you're my babydoll
