He Called Me Baby

Jan Howard · Sweet and Sentimental [Capitol] [1962]

(Harlan Howard)



He called me baby, baby all night long

used to hold and kiss me till the dawn

Then one day I awoke and he was gone

Now there's no more baby, baby all night long.



He called me baby, baby all night long

Kissed my tears away when things went wrong

What I'd give if he'd just come back home

And call me baby, baby all night long.



--- Instrumental ---



He called me baby, baby all night long

Build me up so high and made me strong

Now each time in dreams just like a song

I still hear baby, baby all night long...
