Where were you baby? Lyrics

Where were you baby? Lyrics
Where were you baby? by Don McLean
As recorded by DonMclean
Now I've peeked through fancy boudoirs
Searched through window grates
But I only saw Republicans, romance and Southern states
And where were you baby, when my heart went out?
You left me ba___by, in all this darkness and doubt
Now I've tried to replace you with a streetwalker named desire
But price is up so high, hell I couldn't afford to try her
It takes you my baby to put my fire out
You left me baby, in all___ this darkness and doubt
But tonight I think I'm gonna take some good advice
I'm gonna look around and find somebody that's a really nice
Well perhaps a banker's daughter and if her Papa's a cuss
Well I hope to do to her what her Papa does to us
And we'll have fancy shack and a fancy Cadillac
And she'll be studying to be, a nymphomaniac
And we'll have a little rye and we'll play a little gin
We'll have another rye and we'll play another gin
And then we'll have another rye just to get a little blow
Have another rye just to make the conversations flow
And then we'll have another rye and we'll play a little gin
We'll have another rye and we'll tune some music in
And then we'll have another gin.... and we'll play a little rye...
And we'll suddenly realize that we're getting kind of high
And so we'll turn the lights down low...... to keep the bulbs from getting hot
And we'll play a little game called .. "Yes?"...."No!" ...
Why not?
But tonight I think I'm gonna find me something swell
So I can wake up in the morning... miserable as hell
Now when butter costs a dollar, bread costs more than cake
Come back soon cause think of what a gal like you could make
Yes come back baby don't ever say that we're through
Cos this time woman... I'd like to walk right out on you!
