Now I got a gal just different and though I know she's true
She's never really happy that gal she's feelin' blue
But I know my baby loves me in her own peculiar way
Yes my baby really loves me in her own peculiar way
Now I left her my apartment when I was out of town
When I got back I found that she had to burn the building down
But I know my baby loves me in her own peculiar way
Yes my baby really loves me in her own peculiar way

Now she took occurs and cooking and filled my heart with glee
Till I detected poison in the cake she baked for me
But I know my baby loves me in her own peculiar way
Yes my baby really loves me in her own peculiar way
Now she went down to the corner to catch a picture show
She said I'll see you later but that was twenty years ago
But I know my baby loves me in her own peculiar way
Yes my baby really loves me in her own peculiar way
