Well they took some honey from a tree

They dressed it up and they called it me



Now everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now



I went out last night 'bout half past four

Fifty women knocking on my door



And everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now



I went out last night,  and I didn't stay late

'fore I'm  home I had nineteen dates



And everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now



Me and my gal sittin' in the shade

talk 'bout the money that she has made



And everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now get down



Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby

Everybody's trying to be my baby, now
