Baby's Request

Song ratings

Rating Comments Author Date
Average song rating Paul's usual 40's style song. He should have put all of those on one album, somewhere in 2012 and let nobody buy the thing. Bobber May 18, 2012
Average song rating Paul McCartney refuses to listen to anybody regarding what sort of music "belongs" on a rock and roll album: if he digs it, it goes on. This is a superb piece of 1940's lounge music, and let the Rolling Stone guardians of the Art reviewers be d***ed. Bruce Beatlefan March 19, 2006

Lyrics

When the moon lays his head on a pillow,
And the stars settle down for a rest,
Just do me one small favour, I beg you,
Please, play me my baby's request.

It's the song that we heard when we started,
Now the birds have all flown from our nest.
But you could bring back mem'ries, departed,
By playing my baby's request.

My baby said,
That she knows how it goes,
But you're the one who really knows.
So go ahead,
Just one more time and then we'll go to bed.

But you could bring back mem'ries, departed,
By playing my baby's request.

My baby says,
That she knows how it goes,
But you're the one who really knows.
So go ahead,
Just one more time and then we'll go to bed.

When the moon lays his head on a pillow,
And the stars settles down for a rest,
Just do me one small favour, I beg you,
Please, play me baby's request,
Mm-mm, play me baby's request,
Please, play me my baby's request.

One more time.
