Lyrics

  1. Beautiful, wonderful, simply adorable baby
    Cheeks like a rose that is kissed by the morning dew
    Glorious, marvelous, give me some moreable baby
    “One in a million” that’s just what I think of you

Chorus
Pretty little baby, everybody knows
Pretty little baby, I love you
Sweet as any flower, mighty lak’ a rose
You’re a little angel from your head to your toes
Sweeter than the honey we get from the bee
Everyone that knows you thinks so, too
What he good of trying? there is no denying
Pretty little baby, Oh! I’m in love with you

  1. When we met, you recall, I was a sad little baby
    Even though birdies would sing I would still be blue
    But, my dear, since you’re near I’m just a glad little baby
    One in a million can give me a thrill like you
