Come on, sugar
You know I love you so
I ain't got much time
Before I go

I'm a dyin' man, yeah
That's all I am
I'm a dyin' man
That's all I am
So help me, baby

Come on, baby
And no, I'd be a fool
Just make it fast
Before I go

I'm a dyin' man, oh yeah
That's all I am
I'm a dyin' man, yeah
That's all I am

Come on, sugar
Give me everything you got
I love you so
I'm feelin' hot

'Cause I'm a dyin' man
Well, that's all I am
Yeah, that's all I am
That's all I am
That's all
That's all I am

The Babys are a British rock band most famous for their hit songs “Every Time I Think of You” and “Isn’t it Time”. The band featured vocalist John Waite, and future Journey keyboardist Jonathan Cain.

The band’s name was originally a joke that stuck. According to Waite:

We took the name simply because the record companies wouldn’t listen to any bands they thought were rock & roll. I mean, they wanted sure-fire teen bands, pre-teen bands. We couldn’t get anybody down to hear us to get a record deal, so we called ourselves The Babys. We thought we’d keep the name just for two weeks. Then, the word got around in London that there was a band playing rock & roll called The Babys and it seemed so off the wall, so completely crazy, that it was worth taking a shot with. It really appealed to everyone’s sense of humor.
