Billy Murray - Pretty Baby 1916 Passing Show of 1916 (A World of Pleasure)

Billy Murray - Pretty Baby (Passing show of 1916) 1916 Victor 18102 - 6/22/1916 Camden, New Jersey - Gus Kahn (lyricist) Egbert Van Alstyne (composer) Tony Jackson (composer) Rosario Bourdon (conductor) Ragtime Era Classic. "Pretty Baby" is a song written by Tony Jackson during the Ragtime era. The song and lyrics apparently referred to one of Jackson's male lovers. The song was remembered as being prominent in Jackson's repertory before he left New Orleans in 1912, but was not published until 1916. Here is the way early recording star Billy Murray covered it in 1916: Verse 1 You ask me why I'm always teasing you. You hate to have me call you "Pretty Baby." I really thought that I was pleasing you, For you're just a baby to me. Your cunning little dimples and your baby stare, Your baby talk and baby walk and curly hair, Your baby smile Makes life worthwhile. You're just as sweet as you can be. Verse 2 Your mother said you were the cutest kid. No wonder, Dearie, that I'm wild about you And all the cunning things you said and did. Why, I love to fondly recall. And just like Peter Pan it seems you'll always be The same sweet cunning little baby dear to me, And that is why I'm sure that I Will always love you best of all. Chorus Everybody loves a baby that's why I'm in love with you, Pretty baby, pretty baby, And I'd like to be your sister, brother, dad and mother too, Pretty baby, pretty baby. Won't you come and let me rock you in my cradle of love And we'll cuddle all the time. Oh, I want a lovin' baby, and it might as well be you, Pretty baby of mine, Pretty baby of mine.
