My Forgetful Baby

Boys and girls, i'll tell a story

It's good enough as true

Of my forgetful baby

An act she put me through

Ah, first time that i saw her

I knew i had to make her mine

My dear forgetful baby

Made me lose my mind

She said she had no memory

And then she forgot my name

She said she had some condition

Oh, forgetful in the brain

Ah, she told me to forget her

She would only break my heart

She was beautiful and honest

That's where our story starts

I had just gotten out of prison

She had just gotten out of church

We got married on a sunday

And by monday things were worse

Oh, she can't recall the wedding

She swears she ain't my spouse

So now she's living like she's single

She's living in my house

Oh, there she goes

She tried to kiss the preacher

She even gave my pa a smack

She tried to kiss the mailman

But trouble is, he kissed her back

We were walking through the beaumont

She grabbed another fella by the rear

And i had to flag her down

Forgetful baby, i'm over here

She said forgetful is contagious

And i think i feel the same

I'm pretty sure i've forgotten my forgetful baby's name

Oh, please forgetful baby

Won't you tell me what went wrong?

Tell me quick, forgetful baby

I think i forgot how to end my song

"that was the worst take of all for me. i forgot everything."

"oh, raw, it was really sick."

"it was good, alright we'll get another one, we'll get another one. keep this, just keep, keep it rolling, keep it rolling."
