Because my baby don't mean maybe now
Everything is lovely
The world is so serene
When I say things are lovely
You know just what I mean
It means that I'll be happy
No more I'll have to guess
I feel so oh-so happy
Since someone answered yes
Birds are singing merrily
The sun is shining peacefully
Because my baby don't mean maybe now
When the preacher questions me
I'll say "yes, sir, yessiree"
Because my baby don't mean maybe now
I just got a little letter
Just yesterday
Now I feel a little better
And so I say...
Life is short and mighty sweet
But I know mine is quite complete
Because my baby don't mean maybe now
Birds are singing merrily
Sun is shining peacefully
Because my baby don't mean maybe now
When the preacher questions me
I'll say "yes, sir, yessiree"
Because my baby don't mean maybe now
I just got a little letter
Just yesterday
Now I feel a little better
And so, so I say...
Life is short, mighty sweet
But I know mine is quite complete
Because my baby don't mean maybe
Maybe now
