She's My Baby
Paul McCartney · Other Songs - Paul McCartney
She's takin' me by surprise, she's my baby
Like gravy, down to the last drop
I keep mopping her up, yeah yeah, she's my baby
She's a baby in the morning time
When the sleep is in her eyes
And the world is waking up
She has a rhythm
Oh believe me, I ain't lyin'
She's a woman
She's a lady in the evening time
When the stars are in the skies
That's the time she changes back into a kitten
Oh believe me, I ain't lyin'
She's my baby
And she comes out at night
She's takin' me by surprise, she's my baby
Like gravy, down to the last drop
I keep mopping her up, yeah yeah yeah, she's my baby
Well she's a baby in the morning time
When the sleep is in her eyes
And the world is waking up
She has a rhythm
Oh believe me, I ain't lyin'
She's a woman
She's a lady in the evening time
When the stars are in the skies
That's the time she changes back into a kitten
Oh believe me, I ain't lyin'
She's my baby
And she comes out at night
She's takin' me by surprise, yes, she's my baby
Ooh like gravy, yeah down to the last drop
I keep mopping it up, mopping it up, yeah, she's my baby
Ooh like gravy, down to the last drop
I keep mopping it up, mopping it up, yeah, she's my baby
Ooh like gravy, down to the last drop
I keep mopping it up, mopping it up, yeah, she's my baby
Ooh like gravy, down to the last drop
I keep mopping it up, mopping it up
She's My Baby
She's My Baby is a standout track from Paul McCartney's 1971 album Ram, recorded during a prolific period of collaboration with his wife, Linda. The song showcases McCartney's signature melodic sensibility, blending upbeat pop-rock rhythms with a playful, affectionate tone. As part of the Ram sessions, the recording reflects the couple's creative synergy, with Linda contributing backing vocals that enhance the track's intimate atmosphere. The song's straightforward structure and catchy hook exemplify McCartney's ability to craft accessible yet enduring pop music. Within the broader context of his solo discography, She's My Baby stands as a testament to the fertile output of the early 1970s, a time when McCartney was redefining his sound outside the shadow of The Beatles. Its enduring appeal lies in its warmth and simplicity, capturing a moment of personal joy translated into a universally resonant musical statement.
