I'm walkin' on air,
For I've left all my blues behind.
I've learned how to care
And there's love, really love, on my mind!

I'm the world's most happy creature,
Tell me what can worry be?
I'm crazy 'bout my baby,
Baby's crazy 'bout me!

Mr Cupid was our teacher,
That's the reason we agree.
I'm crazy 'bout my baby,
Baby's crazy 'bout me!

Parson get that book out,
Ready in your hand.
Keep a steady lookout,
You can understand!

It's an A! combination,
We're the perfect he and she.
I'm crazy 'bout my baby,
Baby's crazy 'bout me!

Oh parson get that book out,
Hold it, hold it in your hand.
Keep that lookout,
You can understand!

Baby's crazy 'bout me,
Baby's crazy 'bout me!
