Hey, baby, hey
Hey, beautiful girl
Sing hey, baby, hey
Hey, hey, hey, beautiful girl
Hey, baby, hey
Sing hey, baby, hey
Hey, hey, hey, beautiful girl

Come along, come along
To kiss me before I'm going
Come along, come along
To kiss me before I'm going
Don't you kiss me nice, nice
Before I'm going
Don't you kiss me nice, nice
Before I'm going
Come along, come along
Come along, you, you, you

If I was to build a coliseum it wouldn't lay there with the rest
I'd take a walk on over to your richer plains and share the grass that you say is best
Now if you forget your mother, I forget my friends and we can go
Round and round and round until the circle ends

Now if forbidden fruit throws itself at you, is it still wrong to take a bite?
'Cause you're coming up to me and all I can see is a dark and tender sight
Now if you forget your mother, I forget my friends and we can go
Round and round and round until the circle ends
Hey!
Then I'll say hey baby hey, hey hey hey, hey beautiful girl
Hey baby hey, hey hey hey, hey beautiful girl

Now it's been 29 years behind these prison bars since I left you on the run
With these blistered feet in the southern heat cause of the colour of our son
Now I've never been the one to protest, never been the one to shout
But we can go round and round and round until the word is out

Then I'll say hey baby hey, hey hey hey, hey beautiful girl
Hey baby hey, hey hey hey, hey beautiful girl
Hello my baby, hello my babe, hello my babe, hello my baby
Hello my babe, Hello my sweet heart, hello my baby
Hello my sweet heart, hello my babe, hello my sweet heart
Hey baby hey, hey hey hey, hey beautiful girl
Hey baby hey, hey hey hey, hey beautiful girl
