You must have been a beautiful baby, 
You must have been a wonderful child
When you were only startin' 
To go to kindergarten 
I bet you drove the little girls wild! 

An' when it came to winning blue ribbons, 
You must have shown the other kids how 
I can see the judges' eyes as they handed you the prize 
I bet you made the cutest bows! 

Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby, 
But baby, look at you now 

You must have been a beautiful baby, 
You must have been a wonderful child
When you were only startin' 
To go to kindergarten 
I bet you drove the little girls wild! 

An' when it came to winning blue ribbons, 
I bet you showed the other kids how 
I can see the judges' eyes as they handed you the prize 
I bet you made the cutest bows! 

Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby, 
But baby, baby just look at you now
