Baby Don’t You Quit Now Lyrics

What you do to me
You get through to me
With a beautiful vibration
That is new to me
And instead of no
What comes out is, Oh
Baby, baby, don’t you quit now

When tomorrow lips
Meet two coral lips
Then they kiss me, now and later
We can quarrel lips

I should turn you off
But you turn me on
So baby, baby don’t you quit now

Every kiss I take
Is a piece of cake
And to give me a sample
Was your first mistake
Cause I know when a little tastes like more
And now I want the whole darn
Bakery store

Take my pay from me
Christmas day from
Go anywhere you want
Except away from me
Quit tomorrow noon
Or nine o’clock
The fifth of June
But baby, don’t you quit now
See Tony Bennett Live
Get tickets as low as $37
I should turn you off
But you turn me on
Baby, baby don’t you quit now

Mm mm mm mm mmmmm
Aha ha ha ha ha
La dee da da da dee da da

Quit tomorrow noon
Or at nine o’clock
The fifth of June
But baby, don’t quit now
