The Nat “King” Cole Trio
It’s Like Taking Candy From A Baby

Baby, it's like takin' candy from a baby
Takin' kisses from helpless me
In your arms I'm as defenseless as a baby
You've got me where I wanna be

When my eyes say "yes" to you they don't mean "maybe"
'Cause they express what my heart would say

I'm eager to be kissed
For I'm not made'a wood
Perhaps I should resist
But I wouldn't if I could

Baby, it's like takin' candy from a baby
Takin' kisses I'd give you anyway

[Instrumental Break]

When my eyes say "yes" to you they don't mean "maybe"
Cause they express what my heart would say

I'm eager to be kissed
For I'm not made'a wood
Perhaps I should resist
But I wouldn't if i could
Baby, its like takin' candy from a baby
Takin' kisses I'd give you anyway
