Baby It's You
The Beatles · Please Please Me (Remastered) [2009]
It's not the way you kiss that tears my apart
But how many many many nights go by
I sit alone at home and cry over you
What can I do
Can't help myself
Cause baby it's you
Baby it's you
You should hear what they say about you
(cheat, cheat)
They say, they say you never never ever been true
(cheat, cheat)
Wo ho, it doesn't matter what they say
I know I'm gonna love you any old way
What can I do, then it's true
Don't want nobody, nobody
Cause baby it's you
Baby it's you
Wo ho, it doesn't matter what they say
I know I'm gonna love you any old way
What can I do, then it's true
Don't want nobody, nobody
Cause baby it's you
Baby it's you
Don't leave me all alone
Baby It's You
Released on The Beatles' debut album Please Please Me, "Baby It's You" stands as a quintessential example of the group's early pop-rock sound. Recorded in 1963, the track features the band's signature harmonies and a driving rhythm section that defined their initial catalog. The song captures the youthful energy and romantic themes characteristic of the Liverpool scene before the band moved toward more complex arrangements. As one of their earliest commercial successes, it helped establish The Beatles as a major force in British rock and roll, setting the stage for their subsequent global dominance. The recording remains a staple of their early discography, showcasing the raw talent and collaborative spirit that made them legendary.
