HE CALLED ME BABY
Harlan Howard 1963
Patsy Cline
He called me baby, baby, all night long
Used to hold and kiss me until dawn
Then one day I woke, and he was gone
Now there's no more baby, baby, all night long.
He called me baby, baby, all night long
Kissed my tears away when things went wrong
Oh what I'd give, if he'd just come on back home
And call me baby, baby, all night long.
He called me baby, baby, all night long
Built me up so high, and made me strong
Now each night in dreams, just like a song
I still hear baby, baby
Still hear baby, baby
Still hear baby, baby, all night long.

SHE CALLED ME BABY
Waylon Jennings, Charlie Rich, and others
She called me baby, baby, all night long
Used to hold and kiss me 'til the dawn
Then one day I woke, and she was gone
There's no more baby, baby, all night long.
She called me baby, baby, all night long
Kissed my tears away when things went wrong
What I'd give, if she'd just come back home
And call me baby, baby, all night long.

She called me baby, baby, all night long
Held me up so high, and made me strong
Now each night in dreams, just like a song
I still hear baby, baby all night long
I still hear baby, baby all night long.
