You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby

Perry Como


You must have been a beautiful baby, 
you must have been a wonderful child . . . 
When you were only startin' 
to go to kindergarten 
I bet you drove the little boys wild! 

An' when it came to winning blue ribbons, 
you must have shown the other kids how . . . 
I can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize 
I bet you made the cutest bow! 

Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby, 
'cause baby look at you now . . . 
< instrumental >
Does your dad appreciate 
that you are merely great? 
Does your mother realize 
you're such a treat for the eyes? 

You must have been a beautiful baby, 
you must have been a wonderful child . . . 
When you were only startin' 
to go to kindergarten 
I bet you drove the little boys wild! 

An' when it came to winning blue ribbons, 
you must have shown the other kids how . . . 
I can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize 
I bet you made the cutest bow! 

Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby, 
'cause baby look at you now . . . ( she's a cutie! ) 
baby look at you now . . .
