Take My Baby Up Town Lyrics

I was walking down the streetLooking like a million dollarsWith a pretty person on my armWhen someone started shoutingThey were hooting and a holleringThey were saying I shouldNever have been bornI said baby youhear thatYou're listening to the voices of foolsI said baby let me tell youWhat they're trying to doThey're trying to make our loveA thing of the pastBut I said a-haThere very next dayIt was early in the morningThe sun was shining on my backI was feeling pretty restedThe air smelt goodAnd I forgot aboutThe thing in the parkWhen they walked upthen they passed meYou know I didn't want to turn my headBut they started up againAnd those silly voices rangAnd the clanging wasToo much for my brainBut I said a-haWhat we've got is the bestIt was Friday I had moneyI was feeling kind of specialI was taking my baby up townThe moon was highThe stars were brightAnd there were lots of people in the streetI held your handAnd you kissed meAnd then all the people started to stareWe started a commotionSomeone making commentsMorals, the state of affairsAnd I saidWhat we got is the best
