Now, I love my baby

And she's bound to love me some

Yes, I love my baby

And she's bound to love me some

Now, she throws her arms around me

Like a circle around the sun



I lay down last night, Lord

Just to try to take my rest

I lay down last night, Lord

I was trying to take my rest

But my thoughts they just kept wandering

Like the wild geese in the west



Now I know that sunrise, sunrise

It's gonna shine in my back yard someday

I said I know that sunrise, sunrise, sunrise

It's gonna shine in my back yard someday

And that wind just bound to rise up

Gonna blow, blow all my blues away



Hey, I love my baby

And she's bound to love me some

Hear me say that

I love my baby

And she's bound to love me some

Now, she throws her arms around me

Just like a circle around the sun
