Texty: Rickie Lee Jones. Flying Cowboys. Just my baby.

It seems lately when I walk down the street
There's somethin' in my neighborhood
It's gettin' stronger every day

It's like a rumor that lights up all of me
And it whispers from the rooftops up above
I must hold on or I'll fly away, yeah, yeah

Oh, no, not the autumn leaves
Lift you up like a flower in the cool night breeze
My heart's just flyin' when he walks by

Oh, 'cause he's my inspiration
Yes, indeed my pride and joy
Don't you say nothin' bad about
What's between me and my baby boy

My mom has her own point of view
"You'll learn the hard way
If that's what you're gonna do"
My sister don't have much to say

My girlfriend told me when I was young
You'll know him the minute that he's there
Oh, tell me you feel it comin' in the air?

Oh no, not a summer song
Makes the night feel better
When the day goes wrong
My heart's just a singer when he walks by

Oh no, not a summer night
You forget about tomorrow
'Cause the world seems right
There goes my baby walkin' by

Oh, 'cause he's my inspiration
Yes, indeed my pride and joy
Don't say nothin' bad about
What's between me and my baby

'Cause he's my inspiration
Yes, indeed my pride and joy
Don't say nothin' bad about
What's between me and my baby boy

There goes my baby walkin'
There goes my baby walkin' by
There goes my baby walkin'
There goes my baby walkin' by

There goes my baby walkin'
There goes my baby walkin' by
There goes my baby walkin'
There goes my baby walkin' by
