That Can’t Be My Baby Songtext
von Arthur Conley

I got sick on my job last night
And I had to rush right home
I thought I'd find my baby there
Sitting all alone
I walked up to my front door
Turned the key and walked right in
And I couldn't stand what I saw
And I had to leave again

That can't be my baby love
That can't be my wife
That couldn't be the girl that I promised
To love for the rest of my life

I turned and walked back out of the door
Quiet as I could be
They didn't stop long enough
To even notice me


I heard them say did you hear something
Tell me honey what's that noise
She said baby grab a hold to yourself
It's just my little boys

That can't be my baby love
That can't be my honey
That can't be the one I've been giving
All of my money

I jumped back in my automobile
I didn't want to live another day
The only thing that kept me going
Was the liquor store by the way

That can't be my baby love
That can't be my wife
That can't be the girl I had promised
To rub the rest of my life

Now listen to me now
If you go home unexpectedly
I think you better knock
Or you're gonna have to turn the same with me


That can't be my baby love
That can't be my wife
That couldn't be the girl that I promised
To love for the rest of my life

That couldn't be the girl that I promised
To love for the rest of my life
That can't can't be my baby love
That can't be my wife
That can't my baby love
That can't be my wife
