West Side Baby

I've got a west side baby

She lives way across town

I've got a west side baby

She lives way across town

And when I'm with my baby

I don't want a soul around

Now she's kind of tall and legged

She's always dressed swell

She sets my soul on fire

When she rang my front door bell

I've got a west side baby

She lives way across town

And when I'm with my baby

I don't want a soul around

Now Monday morning early

Someone bang upon my door

I knew it wasn't my baby

'Cuz she's never knocked before

So I lay in bed and wondered

Wno could the caller be

I thought it was insurance man

'Cuz he's been hurting for me

Crazy about my west side baby

She lives way across town

And when I'm with my baby

I don't want a soul around
