When the world began
It started with a man
Now the world just begun for me Other girls may claim
That all men are the same
But I’m one 'she' who never will agree
My bestest, I’m all in,
Shows he knows how and when
My Baby sure knows how to love
He’s got the kind of ways
That sets your heart ablaze
My Baby sure knows how to love
Never tempermental
Always sweet and gentle
Serenades me every night
He’s a prince of petters
King of all go-getters
Everything he does is right
A million Romeos
Don’t know half what he knows
My Baby sure knows how to love
I’d wash and scrub for him
And keep him looking trim
My Baby sure knows how to love
Though he throws it away
I’d bring him all my pay
'Cause my Baby sure knows how to love
If he should abuse me He would never lose me I would hang around his door
And if I caught him cheatin'
And I got a beatin'
I would only love him more
I’ll tell the universe
I’m his for good or worse
'Cause my baby sure knows how to love
Oh, my head spins like a top
He starts where others stop
My Baby sure knows how to love
Does he know his P’s and Q’s?
Why, he’s better than good news
My Baby sure knows how to love
Plays my ukelele
Likes to strum his daily
Makes my senses come and go I forget my grammer
All I do is stammer
When he starts the rodeo
And what I say is no joke
That boy sure has a master stroke
Oh, my baby sure knows how to love
