A letra:

I'd like to love you baby
And keep my other baby too
Put my arms around you,
That's all I want to do
If the sun don't shine tomorrow,
I know I've got you

I'd like to love you baby
And keep my other baby too

Sometimes my baby's sleeping,
Sometimes she's not around
Sometimes I look to find her,
I know she'll put me down

Oh, won't you let me hold you,
Let me lean on you
I'd like to love you baby
And keep my other baby too

If the sun don't shine tomorrow,
I know I've got you
I'd like to love you baby
And keep my other baby too
