WHEN MY BABY PASSES BY
(Glenn Bland)
GLENN BLAND & THE RHYTHM KINGS (SARG 164, 1958)

Well, when my baby passes by
I get so lonely I could die
Well, ever since she went away
I cry all night and I'm fine all day
Oh, baby-baby, my baby
When my baby passes by
Well, I get so lonely I could die

Well, you teenage boys, better listen to me
Let me tell you how your love will be
She'll hug you, kiss you, she'll hold you tight
And trifle on you that very same night
Oh, baby-baby, my baby
When my baby passes by
Well, I get so lonely I could die
(Milk it now!)

Her heart is fickle and her love is cold
She's been bold, so I been told
She kicks after you with every guy in town
She only gives me the run-around
Oh, baby-baby, my baby
When my baby passes by
Well, I get so lonely I could die

Well, I tell you now, I'm a-quittin' her
I'll get me a new gal, that's for sure
Well, she'll call my name, one cold day
And she'll find out her triflin' won't pay
Oh, baby-baby, my baby
When my baby passes by
Well, I get so lonely I could die

Well, I get so lonely I could die
Baby, so lonely I could die
Honey, so lonely I could die
Baby, so lonely I could die
