THAT'S THE KIND OF A BABY FOR ME From the Broadway Revue "Ziegfeld Follies Of 1917" (Jack Egan / Alfred C. Harriman) Eddie Cantor (Broadway Production) - 1917 Eddie Cantor (Re-recorded with Jay Wilbur & His Orch) - 1934 The folks that live next door to me Have a brand new baby And it nearly drives me wild When they talk about that child 'Cause all I ever hear her do is cry But there's another baby As cute as she can be Moved in today Across the way At number sixty three And she's made a hit with me She's got a dog and cat The cutest little hat And all the boys just call her "Baby" She's got a dainty style A little baby smile The kind that makes you wanna stick around awhile She's got those dreamy eyes And every time she sighs You forget your family Her father's over eighty with his nice grey locks He's made a million dollars out of bonds and stocks And she's his only child And she's just awfully wild That's the kind of baby for me She's got a dog and cat The cutest little hat And all the boys just call her "Baby" She's got a bungalow Down where the breezes blow And lots of other little things you shouldn't know She's got those dreamy eyes And every time she sighs You forget your family I raised a little moustache, cute as any pup My baby kissed me once and burned the darned thing up She said, "It's so much fun Please raise another one" That's the kind of baby for me She's got a dog and cat The cutest little hat And all the boys just call her "Baby" She's got a dainty style A little baby smile The kind that makes you wanna stick around awhile She's got those dreamy eyes And every time she sighs You forget your family The other evening, in a cabaret, we spent And when I saw the cheque I thought it was the rent But when the waiter came She simply signed her name And that's the kind of baby for me (Contributed by Peter Akers - January 2009)
