Every Baby Needs a Da-Da-Daddy lyrics

It was cold outside of Tiffany's.

I was shivering in the storm.

I walked in and asked a gentleman

Could I please keep warm?

He asked me "How come a baby doll

Has no comfy place to go?"

So I told that kindly gentleman

My tale of old.

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy

To keep her worry free.

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy,

But where's the one for me?

Rich or poor, I don't care who.

If he hasn't got a million then a half will do.

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy.

Could my da-daddy be you?

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy

With silver in his hair.

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy

Who has some gold to spare.

Some sweet softy who enjoys

Bringing home his baby little diamond toys.

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy

Could my da-daddy be you?

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy

In case she runs aground.

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy

To keep her safe and sound.

Yes we feel just like Red Riding Hood

Cause the wolves are awful hungry in our neighborhood.

Every baby needs a da-da-daddy.

Could my da-daddy be you?

Could my da-daddy be you?
