Five feet seven - of bones and skin
But when she tells me maybe
I feel as mellow as a fellow can be
When she stands sideways - you
(would) think (that) she's gone
To think she's frantically,
She makes my heart surrender
And every night, when I hold her tight
The feeling is nice - my arms
My lean baby - she's so slim
A broomstick's wider - but not as trim
And when she starts to kiss
I love her so, I'll never, ever,
My lean baby - strange to see
And all that nothing - it belongs to me
She's so skinny - she's so drawn
When she stands sideways - y
ou (would) think (that) she's gone
But when she calls me: "baby"
To think she's frantically,
I chased her - and I caught her
But here is the twist - she
wears it right on her wrist
My lean baby - she's so slim
A broomstick's wider - but not as trim
And when she starts to kiss
I love her so, I'll never,
My lean baby - tall and thin...
