Don McLean – Where Were You Baby?

Where Were You Baby? – (Josh White)

As recorded by DonMclean

I looked through every barroom

And I searched from coast to coast

You were scarce as low-cost housing

Baby when I needed you most

And where were you baby, when my heart went out?

You left me ba___by, in all this darkness and doubt

Now I peeked through fancy boudoirs

And I peeked through window grates

I only saw Republicans, romancing Southern states

And where were you baby, when my heart went out?

You left me ba___by, in all this darkness and doubt

Now I tried to replace you with a streetwalker named Desire

But prices up so high, hell I couldn’t afford to try her

It takes you my baby, baby, baby
