Short and Sweet

Short and Sweet
By John Lilly


CHORUS
My baby’s short and sweet
From her pretty little head to her tiny little feet
She’s neat, petite, she can’t be beat,
My baby’s short and sweet.
Yeah, my baby’s short and sweet,
When I get a little kiss it’s a tasty treat,
She makes my lonely week complete,
My baby’s short and sweet.

You might dig Long Tall Sally
Yeah, she’s a sight to see,
But I prefer that abbreviated gal
Who’s waiting downtown for me.

You might overlook her,
Well, that’s your big mistake.
She’s not just a little bitty lump of sugar,
She’s the entire birthday cake.

She comes up to here,
I come up to there,
When we go dancing cheek to cheek
You can hear all the people stare.
