Mark Erelli Brand New Baby
(Mark Erelli)
I met her on the farm on a hot summer night
I don't have to tell you it was love at first sight
It was a chance introduction by a mutual friend
I took a look in her eyes and I fell right in
She had heavenly hips and chestnut hair
It was a couple of days before I came up for air
Next thing I remember she had moved in with me
I was introducing her to my whole family as
CHORUS
As my brand new baby
My brand new baby
She's my brand new baby
I think I'm really stuck this time
My brand new baby wasn't nobody's fool
She laid down the law and she made all the rules
Didn't have much to work with but I'll be damned
If she didn't turn a boy into a full grown man
Now I thought about leaving but I never did go
I just gave what she wanted and I never said no
Now church bells are ringing and they ain't far away
Cause I know better than to disobey
(CHORUS)
Boys if you want to find the girl of your dreams
Stop looking in the movies and the magazines
Find yourself a woman with some meat on her bones
Don't fall for all the plastic and the silicone
There's lots of pretty women, I mean they're everywhere
Just keep your tongue in your mouth and try not to stare
I remember what it's like to be one of the guys
Just don't let me see you trying to catch the eye of
