Babylon Baby
 
My Babylon Baby
 
               (Ingram/Vrooman)
Says she likes Henri Rousseau,
-and she dreams of pink flamingos
says she's into art nouveau,
-and she dreams of pink flamingos
and she drives a celadon Porsche,
of course, ya' know that isn't true,
but that ain't why My Babylon Baby's blue.
Yeah, she's got an easy style,
-dreaming of those pink flamingos
and she's got that winning smile,
-dreaming of those pink flamingos
doesn't like to spend time in Paris,
says, "there is just too much to do!"
but that ain't why My Babylon Baby's blue.
(chorus)
She's got a certain flair,
a lot of savoir-faire,
lives life without a care,
you'd swear that she's a zillionaire!
 Wants to winter on Mustique, 
-and she dreams of pink flamingos
Martinique might be trés chic,
-dreaming of those pink flamingos
but she flies from San Juan to Ponce,
and won't say just what she's up to,
still, that ain't why My Babylon Baby...
Do you know why My Babylon Baby...?
But, my, oh-my, My Babylon Baby's blue,
so blue,
so blue,
in Babylon!
