"Where Do Babies Go" lyrics

Where Do Babies Go

My little boy tried shaving
For the first time
Today
My little girl said, "Mama
I love Paul"
It's been no time
Since he was Daniel Booney
And she'd wear my high heels
To make her tall

He'd bring to me
A trinket from a box of
Cracker jacks
And she a weed
As if it were a rose
I used to wonder
Where do babies come from
But now I wonder
Where do babies go

Where do babies go
Without us knowing
That they're gone?
Time pays no mind
To how fast children grow

I used to wonder
Where do babies come from
And now I wonder
Where do babies go

Where do babies go
Without us knowing
That they're gone?
Time pays no mind
To how fast children grow

I used to wonder
Where do babies come from
And now I wonder
Where do babies go
