Lyrics

Gonna build a big fence around my baby, hum-hum oh yeah Build a big fence around my baby, hum-hum oh yeah I like everything that you do, honey that's why I'm in love with you Gonna build a big fence around my baby so they can't steal my baby from me I just love the way you sigh and the twinkle in your eye There will never, ever be anyone else for me For me (for me) for me (for me, for me, for me, for me) Gonna build a big fence around my baby, hum-hum oh yeah Build a big fence around my baby, hum-hum oh yeah Holy smokes, land sakes alive, when he looks at me, I get butterflies Gonna build a big fence around my baby so they can't steal my baby from me I just love the way you sigh and the twinkle in your eye There will never, ever be anyone else for me For me (for me) for me (for me, for me, for me, for me) Gonna build a big fence around my baby, hum-hum oh yeah Build a big fence around my baby, hum-hum oh yeah I'm gonna build this fence up to the sky, just for me and my little sugar pie Gonna build a big fence around my baby so they can't steal my baby from me So they can't steal my baby from me So they can't steal my baby from me (Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)
