I went and I did some little thing wrong
That's why I had to go and write this song
'bout throwin' out the baby

You're throwin' out the baby
You're throwin' out the baby with the bath-water blues

A perty girl kissed me on the chin
Honey it'll never happen again

You're throwin' out the baby
You're throwin' out the baby
You're throwin' out the baby with the bath-water blues

Don't say our love can't be saved
Just because I kinda misbehaved

Don't throw out the baby
You're throwin' out the baby
You're throwin' out the baby with the bath-water blues

Bath-water may be murky brown
Just pull the plug and it'll all go down
But don't throw out the baby

You're throwin' out the baby
You're throwin' out the baby with the bath-water blues
You're throwin' out the baby
You're throwin' out the baby
You're throwin' out the baby
Yep throwin' out the baby

You're throwin' out the baby with the bath-water
Throwin' out the baby with the bath-water
Throwin' out the baby with the bath-water blues
