The Oldest Baby in the World

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
She's got the mind of a child And a body peaking over the hill Well, she would if she could And she should but nobody will With her nails painted red And her hair so unnaturally curled Well I think that she may be The oldest baby in the world She's tasted the night life But its left her with nothing but hunger And all the available men Seem to think that they want something younger But youth is a costume And the beauty within lies unfurled And I think that she may be The oldest baby in the world Fast horses win races And royal flushes beat aces And everyones playing to keep So lets turn out the lights And rock that old baby to sleep She loves the sound of the rain But you know she's still afraid of the thunder She keeps a head full of hope And a heart that's so full of wonder She may look like a woman But she's still some daddys little girl And I think that she may be The oldest baby in the world Yes, I think that she may be The oldest baby in the world
