"Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby" lyrics

Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby

Well they took some honey
From a tree
Dressed it up and they called it me
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby now

I woke up last morning
Half past four
Fifteen women knocking at my door
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby now

I try to get away, I go on home
But they never seem to leave me alone
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby now

I ain't good looking, I ain't smart
I guess they're after this poor boy's heart
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby now

I know I'm not a movie star
I guess they want to ride in my car
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby now

Well they took some honey
From a tree
Dressed it up and they called it me
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby now
