She’s My Baby
Lyrics:
She’s got her pudding in the oven
And it’s gonna be good
She better not leave me
And go out to Hollywood
She got the best pudding in the neighborhood
She’s my baby
She can drive a truck
She can drive a train (My baby, m-my my baby)
She can even drive an aeroplane
She’s so good to look at in the rain
She’s my baby
She’s comin’ down the sidewalk
She’s stumblin’ through the door
She’s coming home from places
She’s never been before
She sits down on the sofa
She pours herself a drink
Says, “Honey, honey, honey, ain’t no time to think”
My baby
My baby
My baby
She’s got a body for business
Got a head for sin
She knocks me over like a bowling pin
She came home last night and said
“Honey, honey, honey, it’s hard to get ahead”
My baby
My baby
She can build a boat
She can make it float (My baby, m-my my baby)
She can play my guitar
Note for note
She likes to stick her tongue right down my throat
She’s my baby
My baby
My baby
My baby
“She’s My Baby” is a song by the British–American supergroup the Traveling Wilburys and the opening track of their 1990 album Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3. The song was written by all four members of the band – George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan and Tom Petty – and each of them sing a portion of the track. The song was released as the first single from the album, although it was only issued as a promotional single in the United States.[3] The lead guitar part is played by Gary Moore.
The band filmed a music video for the single, which was directed by David Leland and produced by Limelight Films.[4] The clip shows the four Wilburys and drummer Jim Keltner performing the track and a snippet of Dylan riding a bike on the set.[5]
