I've got a west side baby,
he's from way, way across the town.
Yes, I've got a west side baby,
he's from way, way across the town
And when I'm with my baby,
I don't want another soul
Well, he always comes to see me
Travelin' by streetcar, bus, or hail
Yes, he always comes to see me
And before I know what's happening,
he's downstairs ringing my bell
Well, he's kinda tall and lanky,
he always dresses in style
He very seldom says much,
just wears that lovely smile
Oh, yes, he's my west side baby
from way, way across the town.
And when I'm with my baby,
I don't want another soul around.
He came by the other morning.
I was feeling awfully bad.
But when he started to love me,
I got the best feeling I ever had
Yes, he's my West Side baby
And when I'm with my baby
I don't want another soul around
Now, when I'm old and feeble
And can barely see the light
Cause he's my west side baby
And when I'm with my baby
I don't want another soul around you
