Lately Been Dream Bout Babies lyrics

(Bob Carlisle)

I used to think I had it made,
Every time we said goodnight.
This little dating game we`ve played,
Has always seemed to feel all right.
I`ve had my privacy and your heart on a string.
And it`s never been my style to ruin a good thing.

Oh, but lately,
I`ve been thinkin` `bout a change of plans;
Maybe get a couple wedding bands,
And do something crazy.
Maybe get a piece of land and see,
If we could start a little family tree.
Well, I don`t know what`s gotten into me,
But I`ve been dreamin` `bout babies.

I know it can be hard these days,
To be a family man.
I know that all the experts say:
`You need to live life while you can.`
I`ve heard psychology on what makes `true love` true,
And I`ve read the books on educated points of view.

Oh, but lately,
I`ve been listenin` more to Dr. Seuss,
Readin` up on Mother Goose,
Seems she`s quite a lady.
I`ve been seein` lots of pinks and blues,
An` little bitty tennis shoes.
Hearin`: `Goodnight Daddy, I love you``s.
Yeah, I`ve been dreamin` `bout babies.

I used to dream of fancy foriegn cars,
And black tie affairs.
And how we`d live in separate condos,
While we climbed the golden stairs.

Oh, but lately,
I`ve been thinkin` that it makes more sense,
To build a house with a picket fence,
Forget the Mercedes.
Get some puppy-dogs and trainin` wheels,
And a family Oldsmobile.
I can`t believe just how good it feels,
To be dreamin` `bout babies. (Dreamin` `bout babies.)

I can`t believe just how good it feels,
No. -ac
