[Verse 1]
You, you are
My pride and joy
And I just love you, little darling
Every baby boy loves his toy
You've got kisses sweeter than honey
And I work seven days a week to give you all my money
That's why I believe you're my pride and joy
[Chorus]
And I'm telling the world that you're my (Pride and joy)
Pride and joy (Pride and joy)
I believe I'm your (Baby boy)
Baby boy (Baby boy)
That's why you're my (Pride and joy)
Pride and joy (Pride and joy)
Yeah, baby (Baby boy)
Yeah, baby (Baby boy)
[Verse 2]
You, you are
My pride and joy
And a love like mine, oh darling
Is something nobody can ever destroy
You pick me up (Pick me up) when I'm down (When I'm down)
And when we go, oh pretty baby, you shake up the whole town
That's why (That's why) I believe you're my (You're my)
Pride and joy (Pride and joy)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Pride and joy, pride and joy
Pride and joy, pride and joy
Baby boy, baby boy
Pride and joy, pride and joy
Pride and joy
[Outro]
Don't you know that you're my (Pride and joy)
Pride and joy (Pride and joy)
Yeah baby (Pride and joy)
You're my (Pride and joy)
I'm your (Baby boy)
Baby boy (Baby boy)
Pride and joy (Pride and joy)
Oh yeah (Pride and joy)
You're mine, you're mine, don't you know, don't you know
(Pride and joy)
Gimme, gimme one more (Yeah)
Right there (Pride and joy)
You're my (Pride and joy)
Pride and joy (Pride and joy)
Pride and joy, pride and joy (Pride and joy)
I'm your (Baby boy)
Baby boy (Baby boy)
Oh yeah (Pride and joy)
Oh yeah (Pride and joy)
