Sha-la-la-la la-ah, sha-la-la-la la-ah, sha-la-la la.)
(Sha-la-la la-ah.)
It's not the way you smile that touched my heart.
(Sha-la-la-la-la.)
It's not the way you kiss that tears me apart.
Wo-ho-oh, many, many, many nights roll by.
I sit alone at home and cry over you.
What can I do? I can't help myself.
'Cause baby it's you (sha-la-la-la la-ah).
Baby it's you. (sha-la-la-la la-ah).

You should hear what they say about you.
"Cheat, cheat."
(Sha-la-la-la-la.)
They say, they say you never, never, never been true.
(Cheat, cheat.)
Wo-ho, it doesn't matter what they say.
I know I'm gonna love you any old way.
What can I do when it's true?
Don't want nobody, nobody,
'Cause baby it's you (sha-la-la-la la-ah).
Baby it's you (sha-la-la-la la-ah).
[Instrumental break.]
Wo-ho hoh-yeah, many, many, many nights roll by.
I sit alone at home and cry over you.
What can I do? I can't help myself.
'Cause baby it's you (sha-la-la-la la-ah).
Baby it's you. (sha-la-la-la la-ah).
Don't-a leave me alone.
(Sha-la-la-la la-ah.)
Come on home.
[Fade.]

Baby it's you.
(Sha-la-la-la la-ah.)
Baby...
