I MET MY BABY IN MACY’S

I met my baby in Macy’s in Gentlemen’s Underwear
I met my baby in Macy’s and that’s where I learned to care
We looked at a cottage on the Mezzanine
With a toaster and an iron and a washing machine
I met my baby in Macy’s in Gentlemen’s Underwear

I asked my baby to wed me in higher-priced Langerie
I asked my baby and said we should honeymoon rightaway
Should head right for heaven on the 2nd floor
And we’ll buy all the romance that they’ve got in the store
I asked my baby to wed me in higher-priced Langerie

And then my baby refused me and told me she didn’t care
I found my baby in Macy’s so I just returned her there
They’re giving me credit but I’m all alone
So I think I’ll take the door, see what Gimballs are showin’
Who wants my baby in Macy’s in Gentlemen’s Underwear
I left my heart on one of those clothing trees
Between the men’s cologne and the BVDs
When I lost my baby in Macy’s in Gentlemen’s Underwear
