Accompaniment from a player piano roll:


Lyrics

  1. Talk about your famous love affairs
    Romeo and Juliet had theirs
    I just found someone and someone found me
    We’re not very famous, but who cares?

Chorus
I love my baby, my baby loves me
Don’t know nobody, as happy as we
She’s only twenty, and I’m twenty-one
We never worry, we’re just havin’ fun
Sometimes we quarrel, and maybe we fight
but then we make up, the following night
When we’re together we’re great company
I love my baby, my baby loves me

  1. Tho’ we’ve known each other just a year
    I’m not gonna lose her, never fear
    Pa says I’m foolish and Ma says so, too
    ‘Cause each ev’ning this is what they hear

Chorus
I love my baby, my baby loves me
We’re hotsy totsy, why shouldn’t we be?
She gives me kisses, each one is a smack
But you should hear ’em, when I give ’em back
She bought a cookbook, she’s learning to bake
I like her coffee, it keeps us awake
We wash the dishes from seven to three
I love my baby, my baby loves me
