But you never seen nothin' like a Baby King
Ebm                                 Ab/Bb Ebm                  Ab7sus/Bb
Hoo  hoo, hoo hoo.  Hoo,  hoo, hoo  hoo.  Hoo,  hoo, hoo  hoo, hoo.

[Verse 1]

         Ebm
It was a bright and sunny summer morn, she said
Bb                    Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King)
                                     Bb7
It wasn't too long, for he was born now
                       Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King)
                                                Bb
As you could hardly tell by the look on his face
                      Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King) The pretty soon he was gonna run the place, yeah
Bb                    Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King), I said.

[Verse 2]

          Ebm
Now he is strong and he is wise, yeah
Bb                    Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King)
                                  Bb7
He sees right through your old disguise
                      Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King)
                                       Bb
Now you might think that you got it down
                      Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King) Wait till Baby King comes to town now
Bb                    Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King) 'Cause here he comes

[Chorus]

Ebm
Baby King, Baby King You got to get ready for a Baby King
Ebm       Ebm/Gb
You might dance, Daddy
Ab
You might sing
        Ebm/Bb                    Ab/Bb Ebm
But you never seen nothin' like a Baby King

[Verse 3]

          Ebm
No virgin Mary brought him here but
Bb                    Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King)
                                        Bb7
The angels whispered in his tiny little ear
                       Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King)
                                        Bb
But then they sent him down from up above
                      Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King) Just to show you how to really love
Bb                    Ebm
(Get ready for a Baby King)'Cause here he comes

[Chorus]

Ebm
Baby King, Baby King You got to get ready for a Baby King
Ebm       Ebm/Gb
You might dance, Daddy
Ab
You might sing
        Ebm/Bb                    Ab/Bb Ebm
But you never seen nothin' like a Baby King. I said, a-
Ebm                                 Ab/Bb
Hoo  hoo, hoo hoo.  Hoo,  hoo, hoo  hoo.
Ebm       Ebm/Db
You might dance, Daddy
Ab/C      Cbmaj7
You might sing
        Ebm/Bb                         Ebm
But you never seen nothin' like a Baby King
