You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby Lyrics - Perry Como

You must have been a beautiful baby, 

You must have been a wonderful child . . . 

When you were only startin' 

To go to kindergarten 

I bet you drove the little boys wild! 

An' when it came to winning blue ribbons, 

You must have shown the other kids how . . . 

I can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize 

I bet you made the cutest bow! 

Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby, 

'cause baby look at you now . . . 

Does your dad appreciate 

That you are merely great? 

Does your mother realize 

You're such a treat for the eyes? 

You must have been a beautiful baby, 

You must have been a wonderful child . . . 

When you were only startin' 

To go to kindergarten 

I bet you drove the little boys wild! 

An' when it came to winning blue ribbons, 

You must have shown the other kids how . . . 

I can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize 

I bet you made the cutest bow! 

Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby, 

'cause baby look at you now . . . ( she's a cutie! ) 

Baby look at you now . . .
