(JW:) I got a gal who's always late Any time we have a date But I love her Yes, I love her
I'm gonna walk up to her gate To see if I can get it straight 'Cause I want her I'm gonna ask her
Is you is or is you ain't my baby The way you're acting lately makes me doubt
(MS:) I am still your baby, baby, baby Oh, but it seems my flame in your heart done gone out
(JW:) A woman is a creature that has always been strange Just when you think you're sure of one She's gone and made a change

(Both:) Or is my baby still my baby true
