[E] [A] [G#]
[A] Wow, you girls are sure looking nice, huh?
[F#]
Hey, Stan!
[B] Yeah, you know, you remind me of a girl that lives in my [Dm] apartment complex.
[E] Oh, [C#] yeah?
[A] Really.
I don't know where [Am] she does her [D] shopping, [A] but [E] man, what style.
[A] She's a [G#] bit old -timey,
[F#m] but [F#] that's alright with [A#] me.
[B] She wears a [F] dress of [E] velvet
[F#m] that [D] hangs below [F#m] her [Am] knees, her knees.
[A] She's [G#] a bit old-fashioned,
[A] as all [F#] the world can [A#] see.
[B] The cameo she wears [F] upon her [Bm] [A] bosom
puts [D] me in [A]
ecstasy, [D] ecstasy.
Yeah, [A] she's a wrong [G#] grandmother,
[A] that's what they're [F#] telling [A] me.
[B] But my [E] old [Cm]-timey [E] baby
[A] is swell [D] enough [A] for me.
[Am] You see, [D#] you [E] see, she plays her old [Bm] vectrolog.
[A] The [F#] lamp is low [A] kerosene, [D] you [D#] know,
[Bm] upon her [E] bed.
[Bm] [A] The patchwork [D] quilt [A]
beneath [D] her [D#] head,
[E] her wheel is spinning.
[Bm] [A] She [D] sews some lace, [A] or we [Am] can brace.
[A] Or when we [G#] go out strolling,
[A] the world can [F#] plainly [C#m] see
[B] that my [Cm] old-timey [Bm] baby
[A] is swell [D] enough.
[A] She's young [D] enough.
[F#m] She's [D] hip enough
[A]
for me.
That's my baby.
