Hank Snow - My Arabian Baby Lyrics

Recorded by Hank Snow



Well her eyes they sparkle like the sandy dunes

And her voice it rings like all the latest tunes

And when she speaks my name her eyes fairly light up and shine

She's my Arabian baby and maybe she'll soon be mine



I've traveled this whole world over and never have I seen

Such eyes, such lips, such lucious charms on such a lovely queen

So with an eye to the future I will make my plans

I'm a-gonna get a ring on a lilly white hand



And I'll count all the pleasures that I know will soon be mine

And my Arabian baby and me are gonna live just fine



Guitar melody lead break



She puts all the princesses in the shade

With her lips of fire and her eyes of jade

And her charms as warm as the tingle of cherry wine

She's my Arabian baby and maybe she'll soon be mine



Well I've got the license and the preacher man

She's got the frills, I'm gonna bring her a band

And everybody will dance till the sun begins to shine

On the day that I make my Arabian baby all mine
