Well, they call you cradle baby
They say you're too young
Oh, that yours is not real love
You're just havin' fun
'Cause you're only sixteen
And your life is not free
Well, they call you cradle baby
But you're just right for me
So when I need a-lovin' and all of us do
L know that I'm a cookin', Well I'm a lookin' for you
Right back in the cradle
They say you should be
Well, they call you cradle baby
But you're just right for me
Well, they call you cradle baby
Why don't they leave you alone
They say your mama will worry
If you don't hurry home
Just a-pay no attention
'Cause it's all there to see
Well, they call you cradle baby
But you're just right for me
