Hey hey baby

Otis Redding · Trilogy [2005]

Hey, hey pretty baby

Baby, you sure is fine

Hey, hey pretty baby

Baby, you sure is fine

Every time I look at you

You drive me out of my mind



She got big blue eyes

Want her here by my side

She got big blues eyes

Want her here by my side

Hey, hey pretty baby

Let me be your little guide



She got ruby lips

Boy, she sure got pretty hips

She got ruby lips

Boy, she sure got pretty hips

And when she walks down the street

All the cats go flippity flip



She got big blue eyes

Want her here by my side

She got big blues eyes

Want her here by my side

Hey, hey pretty baby

Let me be your little guide



Hey, hey pretty baby

Baby, you sure is fine

Hey, hey pretty baby

Baby, you sure is fine

Every time I look at you

You drive me out of my mind



Hey, hey pretty baby

Baby, you sure is fine

Hey, hey pretty baby



You send me



( Sam Cooke )



Darling you, send me

I know you, you send me

Darling you, you send me

Honest you do, honest you do

Honest you do, honest you do



Darling you, you thrill me

I know you, you thrill me

I know you thrill me

Honest you do, honest you do

Honest you do



At first I thought it was infatuation

But ooh well it lasted

So very, so very, so very long

Now I find myself wanting you

And marry you and take you home



You, darling you send me

I know you, you send me

Darling you, honey, you send me

Honest you do, honest you do

My my



At first I thought it was infatuation

But ooh well it lasted

So very, so very, so very long

(but) Now I find myself wanting you

And marry you, and take you home



I know, I know, I know

You, you, you, you send me

And darling, darling you, you

Darling, you send me

I know you, you, you, you send me

Honest you do, honest you do
