MY BABY'S GOT SUCH LOVIN' WAYS
(Leon Carr / Hal David)

as recorded by The McGuire Sisters
with Orchestra & Chorus directed by Dick Jacobs
1955


He oughta get a lovin' cup
For just the way he cuddles up,
My baby's got such lovin' ways,
Oh yes, my baby's got such lovin' ways!

I don't keep changin' romances,
I don't change partners at dances,
It's not that I don't get chances,
But my oh baby, ah baby, who baby, he baby,
My baby's got such lovin' ways!

He oughta get a great big prize
For all those honeysuckle sighs,
My baby's got such lovin' ways,
Oh yes, my baby's got such lovin' ways!

Come rain or shine we go dating,
He's always late and I keep waiting,
I know it's so aggravating,
But my oh baby, ah baby, who baby, he baby,
My baby's got such lovin' ways!

He oughta get his name in lights
For just the way his gift delights,
My baby's got such lovin' ways,
My baby's got such lovin' ways!

I took him home to meet my mother,
They did not care for each other,
Then again I'm not wild for his brother,
But my oh baby, ah baby, who baby, he baby,
My baby's got such lovin' ways,
My my my my my my baby's got such lovin' ways!
