Just got the love from my baby
She's gonna be keeping a day
She says that she can't wait to see me
And my baby comes around at 8:00


I've been such a mess without her


I've been such a sorry state
But  tonight the world is my own staff
And my baby comes around at 8:00
Oh , I'd sell my shoes to give her  all she wants
But we ain't spending time in fancy restaurants
No, she is happy loving me at home
And tonight's the night I plan on making her of my own
What's that?


I hear the bell ringing

Lights are low and I feel great
And now I can hear my heart singing

Because my baby comes around at 8:00
Darling
 I'd sell my shoes just to give you all you want
And it breaks my heart to know I can't take you to all those fancy restaurants

But you happy loving me at home 
And tonight's the night I'm gonna try to make you of my own


What's that?
 I hear the bell ringing

Lights are low and I feel great
And now I can hear my heart singing
Because my baby comes around at 8:00
