    Lyrics »

I got a sweet little baby, sweeter than apple butter. (2x)
Yes, she's long, lean and lanky - She just dropped in from Calcutta.

Well "I Love You, I Love You" yeah that's what I told her. (2x)
Well we better hurry up and get married - baby before we a get any older.

Well she's my sweet affection - she ain't got no man can block her. (2x)
Yes, she's a sweet little girl - I met her way over in Morocco. (mercy, mercy!)

Well If you see my little girl - will you please send her on home to me. (2x)
Tell her everything's alright - things ain't like it used to be.
