Lyrics
The night we met I knew I needed you so
And if I had the chance I'd never let you go
So won't you say you love me?
I'll make you so proud of me
We'll make 'em turn their heads every place we go
So won't you, please (be my, be my baby)
Be my little baby? (My one and only baby)
Say you'll be my darlin' (be my, be my baby)
Be my baby now (my one and only baby)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
I'll make you happy, baby, just wait and see
For every kiss you give me, I'll give you three
Oh, since the day I saw you
I have been waiting for you
You know I will adore you 'til eternity
So won't you, please (be my, be my baby)
Be my little baby? (My one and only baby)
Say you'll be my darlin' (be my, be my baby)
Be my baby now (my one and only baby)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
So come on and, please (be my, be my baby)
Be my little baby? (My one and only baby)
Say you'll be my darlin' (be my, be my baby)
Be my baby now (my one and only baby)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Be my little baby? (My one and only baby)
Oh-oh-oh (be my, be my baby)
Oh (my one and only baby)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh (be my, be my baby)
Oh-oh-oh (My one and only baby)
Oh (be my, be my baby)

My grandmother used to play this song, I remember so vividly. Also, the fact that this beautiful joyful song came out right when America was facing some of its toughest times, and between 1963-1965 this was the era of the civil rights movement and the fact that both of my grandparents March with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and before marches took place my grandparents would get together with local civil rights leaders in the community and would play music and feed the community and my grandmother said this song was always a favorite amongst people. This is such a beautiful feel good song. Brings so much joy. ❤

@g.y.u3649

What an amazing heritage you have! Are your grandparents still alive? They must write a book about their experiences with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and with the local civil rights leaders. This was such an important part of history, especially black history, and stories like your grandparents need to be written and handed down to future generations. My brother marched in civil rights marches as well. I was too young at the time but remember in horror seeing the police brutality of blacks on the news.

You never know how much you'll be affected by seeing one of the figures of your youth pass, but this one really hit me. I was listening to Eddie Money's 'Take Me Home Tonight' on the radio in the last week and thinking what a cool tribute it was to Ronnie. I was really taking in the different pieces she sang in the song, wondering if she voiced her parts in the studio while the rest of the song was being tracked - just really listening to it.

She was so cool. This song was so perfectly in the groove of what was happening when it was released. Man, I hate to hear this!

Brian Wilson said he had listened to this song more than 1000 times & the first time he heard it 50 years ago in the car he had to pull over & listen to all the instruments. When he was able to reproduce them he said he then knew how to produce a record. He says it’s the best record ever produced. He stopped trying to top it because he said he couldn’t.

There’s something about the way she sings “Be my baby now” that just sends chills down my spine. I’m honestly surprise nobody on here is talking about the diction and tone that she used. Because it pairs hauntingly with this wall of sound beat. Tbh I’m not even sure if it is even classified as singing on that particular note. It’s more of a melancholic wail. Like she is truly yearning for whoever this guy is to just be hers. Which is given more effect and power with the vintage production.
