Be my Baby
Dirty Honkers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I was waiting all this time
For you to come around
You never showed your face
And made me wait and wait
And I'm tired of hanging around

All this waiting makes me tired
Makes me angry, too
You better do, do, do
What you do, do, do
'Cause I'm so in love with you

You gotta be my baby
Be my boy
Come and take away the strong ache my heart beating for more
Be my baby
Be, be, be my boy
Come inside where the sun don't shine
And see what I have in store

Won't you be mine
Now listen baby to what I say
I ain't gonna wait another day
If you don't know then, you don't know much
Seem to lack that magic touch
Sincerely Darling with all my heart
I wish I had known from the start
'Cause then this affair to the tomb
If it don't come down

You gotta be my baby
Be my boy
Come and take away the strong ache my heart beating for more
Be my baby
Be, be, be my boy
Come inside where the sun don't shine
And see what I have in store

Yeah
Uhh
Won't you be mine
Yeah, baby
You know I love you
Wouh, wouh

Now here is a little secret
(?)
Also need a little loving
(?)

So come on baby, show me now
A little something worth my time
I'll be your secret Valentine
Be mine, be mine, be mine
Be my baby tonight

Alright, uhhh
So won't you be mine
Yeah, baby




You know I love you
Be my baby tonight
