New born babe, don't know nothin' 'bout the ways of the world
Or astronauts upon the moon, or witches on brooms
New born babe, don't know nothin' 'bout the politics of people
Or chess pieces, or old churches, you just know your mother
New born babe, don't know nothin' 'bout the way it's gonna be
Or clown faces or master pieces, or love affairs or rockin' chairs
I see you sleepin' away, gettin' older every day
(Instrumental break)
New born babe, don't know nothin' 'bout the way it's gonna be
Or clown faces or master pieces, or love affairs or rockin' chairs
I see you sleepin' away, oh, you're gettin' older every day
