[Verse 1]
Well, take a look at that girl
With the light shinin' out of her eyes
She's gotta be somebody's baby
Yeah, she must be somebody's baby
All the guys on the corner stand back
And let her walk on by
She's gotta be somebody's baby
Yeah, she must be somebody's baby
She's gotta be somebody's baby
She's so fine

[Chorus]
She's gonna be somebody's only light
Gonna shine tonight
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's baby, alright

[Verse 2]
I heard her talkin' to her friends
When she thought nobody else was around
She said she's gotta be somebody's baby
Yeah, she must be somebody's baby
‘Cause when the cars and the signs and the streetlights
Light up the town
She's gotta be somebody's baby
Yeah, she must be somebody's baby
She's gotta be somebody's baby
She's so fine
[Chorus]
Well, she's gonna be somebody's only light
Gonna shine tonight
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's baby, alright

[Bridge]
Well I try to shut my eyes
But I can't get her outta my sight
I know I'm gonna know her
But I gotta get over my fright
I'm just gonna walk up to her
I'm gonna talk to her tonight
Ah

[Outro]
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's baby tonight
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's baby alright
Gonna shine tonight, make her mine tonight
Gonna shine tonight, make her mine tonight
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's baby alright
