Well, I had a little woman
And her name was Baby Jean
Yeah, the sweetest little woman
Oh, my eyes have every seen

Baby Jean (Baby Jean)
Baby Jean (Baby Jean)
Don't be mean

Yes, her lips were red rubies (ah ooh, oop)
And they taste like cherry wine (ah ooh, oop)
Every time I kissed my baby (ah ooh, oop)
Well, I nearly lose my mind (ah ooh, oop)

Baby Jean (Baby Jean)
Baby Jean (Baby Jean)
Don't be mean

Yeah, her hair was oh, so golden (ah ooh, oop)
And her eyes blue as the sea (ah ooh, oop)
And my heart she stop a beatin' (ah ooh, oop)
Every time she looks at me (ah ooh, oop)

Baby Jean (Baby Jean)
Baby Jean (Baby Jean)
Don't be mean

(Ah ooh, Baby Jean)
(Ooh, Baby Jean)

(Ooh, Baby Jean)

Baby Jean
Baby Jean

Yeah, her lips are red rubies (ah ooh, oop)
And they taste like cherry wine (ah ooh, oop)
Every time I kissed my baby (ah ooh, oop)
Well, I nearly lose my mind (ah ooh, oop)

Baby Jean (Baby Jean)
Baby Jean (Baby Jean)
She's my queen
