The Baby (Originally Performed by Blake Shelton) (Instrumental Version) - Musical Creations Karaoke

My brother said that I was rotten to the core

I was the youngest child so I got by with more

I guess she was tired by the time I came along

She'd laugh until she cried I could do no wrong

She would always save me because I was her baby

I worked a factory in Ohio a shrimp boat in the Bayou

I drove a truck in Birmingham I turned 21 in Cincinnati

I called home to mom and daddy

I said ''Your boy is now a man ''

She said ''I don't care if you're 80

You'll always be my baby ''

She loved that photograph of our whole family

She'd always point us out for all her friends to see

That's Greg he's doing great he really loves his job

Ronnie with his 2 kids how 'bout that wife he's got

And that one's kinda crazy but that one is my baby

I got a call in Alabama said come on home to Louisiana

And come as fast as you can fly

'Cause your momma really needs you

And says she's got to see you

She might not make it through the night

The whole way I drove 80 so she could see her baby

She looked like she was sleepin'

And my family had been weepin'

By the time that I got to her side

And I knew that she'd been taken

And my heart it was breakin'

I never got to say goodbye

I softly kissed that lady and cried just like a baby
