Somethin' Bout You Baby I Like

Tom Jones · Other Songs - Tom Jones

I see you everyday walking down the avenue

I'd like to get to know you but all I do is smile at you

'Cause when it comes to talking my tongue gets uptight

This sidewalk love affair has got me high as a kite

Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like



Well, I'm a slow walker but girl I'd race a mile for you

To get there in time for a peek-a-boo rendezvous

Now maybe it's the way you wear you're blue jeans so tight

I can't put my finger on what you're doing right

Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like



Now when I go home to sleep I turn out the light

You come strolling through my dreams 'most every night

Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like



I'm standing on a corner hiding by the telephone

I'd like to check you over, I know you like a fine tooth comb

Now I don't need astrology to tell me what's right

The sign I'm looking at is such a beautiful sight

Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like



I said, yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like

I said, yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like

I said, yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like

I said, there's something 'bout you baby I like



Gotta say it again

I said, yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like

I said, yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like
