[Verse 1]
Hormone in production
Such a waste of time
Let's get down to business
I know I'm a stranger
You should know that I'm
Won't you be my baby?
Good girls should be careful
And always home on time
(good girls should be careful)
Don't misunderstand me
You can make the rules
But i'll make the arrangements

[Chorus]
All you got to do is be my baby
Be my baby

[Verse 2]
Help you with your problems
You help me with mine
Won't you be my baby?
I can teach you things
You'll never learn in school
You don't have to thank me

[Chorus]
All you got to do is be my baby
Be my baby, that's all you got to do
You'll take care of me, babe
And I'll take care of you
Won't you be my baby?

[Bridge]
(be my baby) [x5]

[Outro]
(baby, baby, baby, be my baby)
Babe, babe, babe, baby, babe
Come on, baby, come on, baby, now
Oh, baby, baby, (baby, baby) baby, baby
Be my baby, oh, be my baby
I said, babe, babe, babe, baby, babe
"turn the tape off just for me!"

Best known as the drummer for The Beatles, Ringo Starr (born Richard Starkey, 1940) also had a moderately successful solo career (with hits like “It Don’t Come Easy” and “Photograph”) and was the narrator for Thomas The Tank Engine.

His country-infused nickname emerged from a tendency to wear rings on his fingers.
