Baby Ruth

[Verse 1]

Well, it's sure good to see you

But my how you've changed

Since the last time I saw you

Girl, you've been rearranged

I always said your people

Were just like my kin

When I was down and out

They would always take me in

[Chorus]

Oh I love you, my Baby Ruth

Never lie to you, I only tell the truth

Yes, I loved you since you were a child

Every time I see you, girl, you always raise a smile

[Verse 2]

I was living out on the highway

You didn't throw me out

I lived in your closet

And you fed me by mouth

My boots were my pillow

Wrapped under my head

I kept all my stuff

Stashed out under your bed

[Chorus]

Oh I love you, my Baby Ruth

Never lie to you, I only tell the truth

Yes, I loved you since you were a child

Every time I see you, girl, you always raise a smile
