Baby Doll

I don't know about your brain but mine is really bossy

I come home from a day on the golf course and I find all these messages scribbled on wrinkled up scraps of paper

And they say thing like: Why don't you get a real job?

Or: You and what army?

Or: Get a horse.

And then I hear this voice comin from the back of my head

Uh huh (Whoa-ho) Yep!

It's my brain again

And when my brain talks to me,

He says: Take me out to the ballgame

Take me out to the park

Take me to the movies

Cause I love to sit in the dark

Take me to Tahiti

Cause I love to be hot

And take me out on the town tonight

Cause I know the new hot spot.

He says: Babydoll! Ooo oo oo Babydoll Ooo

He says: Babydoll! I love it when you come when I call Babydoll!

You don't have to talk I know it all Babydoll!

Ooo oo oo Babydoll Ooo

Well I'm sitting around trying to write a letter I'm wracking my brains trying to think of another word for horse

I ask my brain for some assistance.

And he says: Huh...Let's see...How about cow? That's close.

He says: Take me out to the ballgame

Take me out to the park

Take me to the movies

Cause I love to sit in the dark

Take me to your leader

And I say: Do you mean George?

And he says: I just want to meet him

And I say: Come on I mean I don't even know George!

And he says: Babydoll! Ooo oo oo Babydoll Ooo

He says: Babydoll! I love it when you come when I call Babydoll!

You don't have to talk I know it all Babydoll!

Ooo oo oo Babydoll Ooo Babydoll! Babydoll! Ooo oo oo Babydoll! Babydoll! Ooo oo oo Babydoll! Babydoll! Ooo oo oo
