Babys Gone Shopping
Babys gone shopping
By: jimmy buffett
1988
There are ten pictures of marilyn monroe in my studio and I always fantasize while Im singing about being a chauffeur in the car as marilyn hits the stores on madison avenue and then she asks m
Go to mexico with her.
Babys gone shoppin shes looking around
Shes checkin out the clothes on the boys in town
Pick up this drop off that
Stares at her pictures from the fotomat
Oh she likes what she sees
But shes afraid of what she needs
She should be here with me
She should be here with me
But I dont make it easy, Im no day at the beach
Just an old road dog gettin harder to teach
Hang on this planet, hang on each twirl
Scatter my belongins all over this world
I get more wrapped up each day
Shes lookin further away
She should be here with me
She should be here with me
(horn solo)
Im no good at conversation (no good)
I dont want a proclamation (oh, no, no)
I just think that we could use
A little face-to-face communication
Ow!
Ive been thinkin, thinkin this through
Its time to stop all this selfishness both me and you
Ill stop from here, you stop from there
Well meet somewhere in the middle darlin I dont care
I dont want no more heartaches its time to put on the brakes
She should be here with me
I dont want no more heartaches its time to slam on em brakes
She should be here with me
Babys gone shoppin, she should be here with me
No more bar hoppin, she should be here with me
Now, I dont know but Ive been told
That city livin is awfully cold
She should be right here, here with me (he should be...)
Brrrrrr... (...here with me)
Babys gone shoppin, she should be here with me (he should be...)
(...here with me)
No more bar, no more bar, no more bar hoppin
Should be here with me (he should be here with me)
She should be here with me
She should be here with me (he should be...)
(...here with me)
No more bar, no more bar, no more bar hoppin
Should be here with me (he should be here with me)
She should be here with me (gone shoppin)
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-babys gone shoppin (gone shoppin)
Coda:
She should be here with me
She should be here with me (gone shoppin, he should be...)
She should be here with me (he should be here with me)
She should be here with me (gone shoppin, he should be here!)

Shoppin
Im shoppin gonna buy my blues away
Shoppin Im walking up to the counter and say
I want this sweater I sure feel better
Shoppin gonna take my troubles to town
Shoppin you dont need money down
Charge it, wrap it send it
Shoppin
Ever since my mother took me to a big department store
My heartbeat escalated all the way to the second floor
I couldnt hide my passion for the latest fashion craves
My momma told me thats just another phase Im going through
Whatcha got, thats new
Shoppin gonna buy my blues away
Shoppin I got bad news today
Instead of eating cause my mans cheating
Shoppin Im gonna take my troubles to town
Shoppin why everyone else around is smokin token coken
Well Ill be shoppin
(spoken in the background)
Excuse me miss,
See that-the dress over there
How many colors does it come in
Yes, all right, no, Id like it every one
No, Im not going to try it
I know itll fit
Ooh, you know what
Lets go up..ohh, theyre having a sale
My god, I love sales
No, I dont have any last name
Its just cher, just plain cher
Ooo, I like the shoes
Do you think you could..this thing,
Its all pink and wrinkly.. its..
What a darling little bag
Shoppin Im gonna buy it
Shoppin I never try it on for size
Shoppin will I like it
Shoppin does the color match my eyes
Folks say Im daring for what Im wearing
Im always scaring the peoples staring
So Im declaring Im tired of swearing
Im just shoppin
Shoppin Im gonna buy my blues away
Shoppin I got bad news today
Shoppin Im gonna take my troubles to town
Shoppin dont need money down
Shoppin gonna buy my blues away
Shoppin walking up to the counter and say
I want that sweater I sure feel better
Shoppin charge it, wrap it send it
Shoppin instead of eating cause my mans cheating
I been shoppin

You got the hugginest arms
The thrillinest eyes
Youre just my style
And youre just the right size

Finger Poppin'
I used to jump when you called
And I would cry when you leave
I had to plan every move
Just to keep you pleased
But I don't care no more
About nothing you do
Now I'm goin' shoppin'
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you
I got bags under my eyes
From losin' sleep
You gave me malnutrition
'Cause I just couldn't eat
But I don't care no more
About nothin' you do, boo hoo
'Cause I'm goin' shoppin'
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you
You never bought me no clothes
I had to steal what I wear
I wore shoes so long
'Til my feet were bare
But I don't care no more
About nothin' you do, oh no
And I'm goin' shoppin'
Finger, fingerpoppin' on you

German Afternoons
Sailin around, sailin around, sailin around,

But I cant get back to you.
Hangin around, hangin around, hangin around
Ive been out hangin around again
Ive been hangin around
But I cant get back to you.

So tell where you been so long (sailin around)
What have I done so wrong? (sailin around)

Maybe My Baby
(eric carmen)
Maybe my babys got a new man
Who can take her where she wants to go
(Im thinking)
Maybe my babys got a new lover
And Im not supposed to know
I call her on the telephone
But shes never where shes supposed to be
Lately when were all alone
Well it seems she dont want any part of me
Dont you know Im gonna lose my mind
If theres someone else after all this time
(Im thinking)
Maybe my babys got a new man
Who can take her where she wants to go
(Im thinking)
Maybe my babys got a new lover
And Im not supposed to know
(well somethin tells me)
Maybe my babys got a new guy
And hes really puttin on a show
(Im thinking)
Maybe my babys got a new lover
And Im not supposed to know
I cant believe its come to this
But my heart keeps tellin me theres somethin wrong
I feel the difference in her kiss
I wanna know what Ill do when shes really gone
Well, dont you know Im gonna lose my mind
If theres someone else after all this time
(I keep thinking)
Maybe my babys got a new man
Who can take her where she wants to go
Maybe my babys got a new lover
And Im not supposed to know
(well somethin tells me)
Maybe my babys got a new guy
And hes really puttin on a show
(Im thinking)
Maybe my babys got a new lover
And Im not supposed to know
I cant seem to pin her down
Friends tell me all Im getting is the runaround
Im sitting home and its saturday night
Is she moving in with someone else tonight
Maybe my babys got a new man
Who can take her where she wants to go
(Im thinking)
Maybe my babys got a new lover
And Im not supposed to know
(well somethin tells me)
Maybe my babys got a new guy
And hes really puttin on a show

And Im not supposed to know

Its Too Late
(by chuck willis)
Its too late, shes gone.
Its too late, my babys gone.
Wish I had told her she was my only one.
Its too late, shes gone.
Its a woman that cries,
So I guess Ive gotta hide my eyes.
Yes, I will miss her more than anyone.
Its too late, shes gone.
Shes gone, yes shes gone.
Shes gone, my babys gone.
Shes gone, yes shes gone.
Where can my baby be?
And I wonder does she know
When she left me, it hurt me so.
I need your love babe, please dont make me wait.
Tell me its not too late.

Babys Got A Brand New Hairdo
Babys got a brand-new hairdo, and doesnt she look so nice?
She said everything that she cares to, she said it not once but twice
She said it doesnt matter unless its her matters
Well, I dont care bout all
The girl that used to love it, and the girl I still hate
Babys got a brand-new hairdo, and doesnt she look so fine?
She said everything that she used to,
Except shes picking your heart, not mine
She said it doesnt matter unless I say it matters
She said pretty pink things on silver platters
I dont care about all the moms and dads
The girl that used to love it, and girl I still hate
Shes the girl that used to love it, and the girl I still hate
Babys got a brand-new hairdo, and doesnt she look so good?
She looks like jennifer harlow, said I wish you would
I wish you would
Babys got a brand new hairdo , I wonder whats left inside
She used to meet me at the mens room, before she learned how to be snide
She walks in the place and everybody scatters
I dont care about all the martin dress
Shes the girl who used to love it and the girl I used to hate

My Babys In Love With Eddie Vedder
Oh, my baby, my baby she dont want me no more
Ever since she saw his poster in that record store
She says the way he grinds his molars is really sexy
She thinks hes so darn dysfunctional and generation xy
She likes his brooding angst and his wild-eyed stare
Yeah, hes her very favorite slacker multi-millionaire
Well, my babys in love with eddie vedder
Shes all crazy bout that eddie vedder
Once she was mine, but now I better just forget her
cause my babys in love with eddie vedder
Now, every time I see him, well, he looks so grim
I guess it really must suck to be a rock star like him
What a pain in the butt to have so much success
Spending all his time moping and avoiding the press
But my girl cant get enough of his sullen demeanor
Like hes some big tortured genious and Im some kinda wiener
Well, my babys in love with eddie vedder
Shes got a thing for that eddie vedder
Tell me, what can he do that I cant do better
Now my babys in love with
I said I said I said my babys in love with eddie vedder
Head over heels for that eddie vedder
I cant believe it, now shes knitting him a sweater
cause my babys in love with eddie vedder
I knew we were headin for disaster
When she caught me hangin out at the ticketmaster
Now shes got an unrequited adoratioon
For the frustrated, agitated, designated alienated
Spokesman for the disaffected grunge generation
Well, I dont wear doc martens and I dont wear flannel
And I dont boycott the music video channel
And I just cant compete with all that money and fame
But I know two can play at this game
Yeah, well, lets just see how jealous shess get
When I start stalking alanis morissette
Well, mny babys in love with eddie vedder
Shes all crazy bout that eddie vedder
Once she was mine but now I better just forget her
cause my babys in love with
I said I said I said my babys in love with eddie vedder
Whyd she have to fall for that eddie vedder
If she wants to leave me, I guess I better let her
cause my babys in love with eddie vedder

My Babys Gone
You got to weep
You got to wail
You got to drag yourself on hands and knees bleeding
Another mile along the trail
You got to laugh in the face of the devil
When hes hanging on to your shirt tail
You got to hold down the lid of the coffin
And hammer in the last nail
My babys gone so far away
Shes never coming back to me
You got to live
You got to learn
How to find your way to the end of the night
When theres nowhere left to turn
How to keep the last embers of the fire alight
When theres nothing left to burn
How to say goodbye to the ashes that fly
From the cheap metal urn
My babys gone so far away
Shes never coming back to me
She said go to sleep
You got to save
Your anger and rage for the living
cuase theyre no damn good in the grave
And dont waste your time in forgiving
The ones who just dont know how to behave
Theres heaven and hell in the world that you live in
But Im in a different place
My babys gone so far away
Shes never coming back to me

Baby's Got Me Up All Night
Baby my babys got me so tired
Ive been staying up late for weeks
and been sleeping on the floor
But now I cant sleep cos Im always thinking about her
and when Im not Im just dreaming
and shes holding me Again
Now babys got me up all night
Shes got me dreaming of her every day
And I cant seem to get it right
so should I tell her in another way?
Now babys got me up all night
How long, how long do I depend on the photographs and the
sad songs that keep her in my brain?
Because Im out there, Im burning that much brighter
Im standing right there beside her as happy as can be
Now babys got me up all night
Shes got me dreaming of her every day
And I cant seem to get it right
so should I tell her in another way?
Now babys got me up all night
Shes got me dreaming of her every day
And I cant seem to get it in my head
When she says shes never leaving me
Now babys got me up all night
Shes got me dreaming of her every day
And I cant seem to get it right
so should I tell her in another way?
Now babys got me up all night
Baby my babys got me so tired
Ive been staying up late for weeks

Shooting Stars
Here I come again
It is the end of the night
And baby stuck out tonight
Oh but to her strange vibes
To make her feel alright
For babys feeling sick
Well now she tried so hard
So hard to be hip
Shes shooting stars
With her friends
Shes shooting stars
Till the end
What is the time of day
She thinks shes really hip
Oh it can be so maim
If you wanna play that game
Why dont you listen to me
Dont go out tonight
Dont go out with no boys
Oh your heads always to the ground baby
On the scrounge at the peppermint ground
Babys feeling sense
Well now she tried so hard
So hard to be hip
Shes shooting stars
With her friends
Shes shooting stars
Till the end
What is the time of day
She thinks shes really hip
Well you wanna play the fool
You wanna be so cruel
You wanna shoot that hero
Oh dont you know that baby
Revolution or maim
It is the end of the night
And baby stopped out tonight
To many sing marks on her hearts
To do her any more harm
Babys feeling sick
They tracked her down
And she tried so hard
So hard to be hip
Shes shooting stars
With her friends
Shes shooting stars
Till the end
Shes shooting stars
With her friends
Shes shooting stars
Till the end
Come on, be her friend
You know shes in my trust
You know shes in my strong

Shes Too Good For Me
She dont like to hear me sing
She dont want no diamond ring
She dont want to drive my car
She wont let me go that far
She dont like the way I look
She dont like the things I cook
She dont like the way I play
She dont like the things I say
But oh the games we play
Shes too good for me
Shes too good for me
She dont like the jokes I make
She dont like the drugs I take
She dont like the friends I got
She dont like my friends a lot
She dont like the clothes I wear
She dont like the way I stare
She dont like the tales I tell
She dont like the way I smell
But oh the game we play
Shes too good for me
Shes too good for me
Would she prefer it if I washed myself more often than I do
Would she prefer it if I took her to an opera or two
I could distort myself to be the perfect man
She might prefer me as I am
She dont want to meet my folks
She dont want to hear my jokes
She dont want to fix my tie
She dont even want to try
She dont like the books I read
She dont like the way I feed
She dont want to save my life
She dont want to be my wife
But oh the games we play
Shes too good for me
Shes too good for me

Hey Jesus
Hey jesus its me
I dont usually talk to you
But my babys gonna leave me
And theres something you must do
I am not your faithful servant
I hang around sometimes
With a bunch of your black sheep
But if you make my baby stay
Ill make it up to you
And thats a promise I will keep
Hey jesus its me
Im the one who talked to you yesterday
And I asked you please please
For a favor but my babys gone away
Went away anyway
And I dont really think its fair
Youve got the power to make us all
Believe in you
And then we call you in our despair
And you dont come through
Hey jesus its me
Im sorry
I dont remember all I said
I had a few, no, too many
And they went straight to my head
And made me feel like I could argue with god
But you know its easy for you
You got friends all over the world
You had the whole world waiting for your birth
But now I aint got nobody
I dont know what my lifes worth
Im not gonna call on you any more
Im sure youve got a million things to do
All I was trying to do
Was to get through to you
Get through to you
Because when I die and I get up to your doors
I dont even know if youre gonna let me in the place
How come I gotta die
To get a chance to talk to
You face to face

Right here your hands are soft and creamy
Right here your mouth is wet and dreamy
