Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sweet and pretty lady
I see you in my dreams
Oh, what you do to me
Why won't you be my baby?
Sweet and pretty lady
I’ll buy you nice things
I've had this thought and, since we been talkin'
I don't mean to rush
But I gotta know if it’s okay for me to show you how I feel
The brightness of your smile lifted me over
The clouds in the sky, oh, you know that I'd be
Higher than I've ever been when I hold ya
So, please, won't you tell me why?
Why won't you be my baby?
Sweet and pretty lady
I see you in my dreams
Oh, what you do to me
Why won't you be my baby? (baby)
Sweet and pretty lady
I’ll buy you nice things
Oh, what you do to me
Oh the sweet little things, oh yeah
Sweet little things that you do for me, alright, ah yeah
Open up your heart and welcome me in
I been knockin', oh
I know you're torn apart about where you've been
But, can we start again?
The brightness of your smile lifted me over
The clouds in the sky, oh, you know that I'd be
Higher than I'd ever been when I hold ya
So, please, won't you tell me why?
Why won't you be my baby? (baby)
Sweet and pretty lady (sweet and pretty lady)
I see you in my dreams (ooh)
Oh, what you do to me
Why won't you be my baby? (baby)
Sweet and pretty lady
I’ll buy you nice things
Oh, what you do to me
Oh the sweet little things, oh yeah
Sweet little things that you do for me, alright, ah yeah
Na na na nah...
Boricua, morena (sweet little thing, yeah)
Mi mexicana, ecuatoriana (sweet little thing, yeah)
Mi negrita, mi blanquita
Mi chinita, morena
The lyrics to Cee Nario's song "Be My Baby" express the singer's desire for a particular woman to become his romantic partner. He repeatedly asks her why she won't be his baby, addressing her as a sweet and pretty lady. The singer admits to dreaming about her and acknowledges the effect she has on him. He even promises to buy her nice things, presumably as a way to win her over.
In the second verse, the singer speaks directly to the person he loves, expressing how her bright smile has uplifted him and made him feel higher than ever before. He asks her to tell him why she won't be his baby, emphasizing his longing and curiosity about her feelings.
The bridge of the song shifts the focus slightly, highlighting the sweet little things the woman does for the singer and inviting her to open up her heart and give their relationship a chance. He acknowledges that she may have reservations or be torn about her past experiences, but he wants to start fresh with her.
