"Have You Seen My Baby" lyrics

"Have You Seen My Baby"
(originally by Randy Newman)

Have you seen my baby
On the avenue?
You know she's driving me crazy
With the funny things she do
I seen her with the mailman
Ridin' down the street
When you're through with my baby, mailman
Send her home to me

Hold on, hold on, hold on
Now it's been so long
Since she has been gone
Hold on, hold on, hold on

I seen her with the gypsies
Dancin' through the woods
She's always been unfaithful to me
She ain't never been no good
I told her, "Please don't talk to strangers"
But she always do
She say, "I'll talk to strangers if I want to
I'm a stranger, too!"

Hold on, hold on, hold on
Now it's been so long
Since she has been gone
Hold on, hold on, hold on
