[Verse 1]
Haven't laughed this hard in a long time
I better stop now before I start crying
Go off to sleep in the sunshine
I don't want to see the day when it's dying
[Chorus]
She's a sight to see (Sight to see)
She's a-good to me (Good to me)
But I'm already somebody's baby
She's a pretty thing (Pretty thing)
And she knows everything (Everything)
But I'm already somebody's baby
[Verse 2]

Pretty soon you'll find it's the only
Little part of your life you're keeping together
[Chorus]
I'm a-nice to you (Nice to you)
I could make it through (Make it through)
That you're already somebody's baby
I could make you smile (Make you smile)
If you stayed a while (Stayed a while)
But how long will you stay with me baby?
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]

Even if I think that you are right
Well, I'm tired of being down, I got no fight
[Chorus]
You're wonderful (Wonderful)
When it's beautiful (Beautiful)
But I'm already somebody's baby
And if I went with you (Went with you)
I'd disappoint you too (Disappoint you too)
Well, I'm already somebody's baby
Already somebody's baby
