I Cover the Waterfront - Jimmy Witherspoon

I love to look in my baby’s face

I love to feel that silk and lace

And when she kiss she nearly makes me shout

Great God almighty when the lights go out

I love to see her walking down that street

She always dresses so nice and neat

You’ll never know what it’s all about

Great God almighty when the lights go out

Now you can use your imagination

You’d still be far behind

There is nothing in creation

Like that girl that girl of mine

I love to hold her when she talks that talk

I love to watch her when she walks that walk

And if I pet her when she is trying to pout

Great God almighty when the lights go out

Yeah

You can use your imagination

You’d still be far behind

There is nothing in creation

Like that girl that girl of mine

I love to hold her when she talks that talk

I love to watch her when she walks that walk

And if I pet her when she is trying to pout

Great God almighty when the lights go out

Great God almighty when the lights go out
