You're the baby I've been callin' my own
Oh! me, Oh! my,
You're about the meanest baby I've known.
And here's just why,
When I wanna kiss, you answer no
I'll tell you this, I'm gonna go
And babies always cry when they're left alone

You'll get those Cry Baby Blues, You're gonna Cry Baby
Cry Baby Blues just means good-bye baby
Sugar o' mine, Your so refined
You wont do this! Wont do that! Now what's on your mind
Cry Baby Blues, You're gonna die baby;
Kisses you'll lose as sweet as pie baby;
Ask mos' any sweetie at the candy shop
What good is a lolly without any pop?
If I skidoos you're gonna Cry Baby
Those Cry Baby Blues

You must think your kiss is made out of gold,
Oh! me, Oh! my,
They wont do you any good when you're old
And here's just why,
When roses are red, bees hang around
When they are dead, bees can't be found
There'll be no bees around when your love grows cold.

You'll get those Cry Baby Blues, You're gonna Cry Baby
Cry Baby Blues just means good-bye baby,
Sugar o' mine, Your so refined,
You wont do this! Wont do that! Now what's on your mind.
Cry Baby Blues, You're gonna die baby;
Kisses you'll lose as sweet as pie baby;
I'm the bestest baby in our neighborhood.
They say I'm not bad, but still I'm not so good.
If I skidoos you're gonna Cry Baby,
Those Cry Baby Blues.
