What Is a Baby

What is a baby?

What is that gurgling?

What is that cooing?

I wonder what that baby is doing

♪

Oh

What is a baby?

I just can't understand

It must be something wonderful

It must be something grand

'Cause everybody's smiling

In a kind and wistful way

And they haven't even noticed

That I'm around today

♪

What is a baby?

I must find out today

What makes Jim Dear and Darling

Act this way

♪

I am your mother

And I'm so glad you're here

You have a father who loves you

Oh, so dear

We call you baby

'Cause we don't know how to say

That you are love

That's come to live at our house

Today

♪

We call you baby

'Cause we don't know how to say

That you are love that's come to live

At our house today...
