- Verse:
- Ros -y cheeks and turn'd
up nose and curl -y hair,
- I'm rav -ing 'bout my ba
-by now.
- Pret -ty lit -tle dim -ples
here and dim -ples there,
- Don't want to live with
-out her, I love her good -ness knows.
- I wrote a song a -bout her,
And here's the way it goes:
-
- Chorus:
- Ba -by Face, You've got
the cut -est lit -tle
- Ba -by Face, There's not
an -oth -er one could
- Take your place, Ba -by

- My poor heart is jump -in,
You sure have start -ed some -thin',
- Ba -by Face, I'm up in heav
-en when I'm
- In your fond em -brace,
- I did -n't need a shove,
'Cause I just fell in love,
- With your pret -ty Ba -by
Face.
