Lean BabyMy lean baby, tall and thinFive feet seven, of bones and skin But when she tells me maybe she loves me I feel as mellow as a fellow can be She's so skinny, she's so drawn When she stands sideways, you would think that she's gone But when she calls me, "Baby", I feel fine To think she's frantically, romantically mine She's slender, but she's tender She makes my heart surrender And every night, when I hold her tight The feeling is nice, my arms can go around twice My lean baby, she's so slim A broomstick's wider, but not as trim And when she starts to kiss me, then I know I love her so, I'll never, ever, let her go My lean baby, strange to see And all that nothing, it belongs to me And though she may be scrawny, she's okay Because I wouldn't want her any other… |
