Lovin Baby Girl — Melanie

(Melanie Safka)

I was a lovin baby girl Mommy, daddy had I none Be my mommy, daddy I will be your lovin one

Before the time I knew your face dear I was doing very well If I never knew your kisses I'd never known that I'd been in hell

If I had some pennies I could have a world of fun Give me all your pennies And I will be your lovin one

Once upon a christmas time I lost christmas in my mind I looked through all the windows 'round To find a star I hadn't found Then all at once Before I knew Christmas froze my soul into A cryful night I had a dream And saw a place I'd never seen

If I had some pennies I could have a world of fun Give me all your pennies And I will be your lovin one

I was a lovin baby girl Mommy, daddy had I none Be my mommy, daddy I will be your lovin one
