Lyrics

Oh my baby changes day-to-day
It even can be hour to hour
Sometimes she’s sweet, sometimes she’s sour

I never know which one I’m going to get
If she will be happy or complain
Though I am uncertain you should let
Me tell you that I love her just the same

Oh my baby changes day-to-day
It even can be hour to hour
Sometimes she’s sweet, sometimes she’s sour

Sweet and sour, kind of saucy
My little flower’s a little bossy
Never bitter, never salty
I am wit’ her, can you fault me?

Oh my baby loves to change her clothes
Just as we’re walking out the door
And as you know the story always goes
She puts on what she had on before

Oh my baby changes day-to-day
It even can be hour to hour
Sometimes she’s sweet, sometimes she’s sour

Sweet and sour, she’s delici-ous
Regardless of her metamorphosis
I must be some kind of sucker
I think she’s being sweet and then I start to pucker

Oh my baby loves to change her mind
But I don’t think that’s really quite as strange
As when I come home from work sometimes
And all the furniture’s rearranged

Oh my baby changes day-to-day
It even can be hour to hour
Sometimes she’s sweet, sometimes she’s sour

Yes I have a taste for lemonade
But not the type that comes from a powder
I like my lemons fresh give me some sugar
Sweet and sour

Oh my baby changes day-to-day
It even can be hour to hour – Sometimes she’s sweet, sometimes she’s sour –
Sometimes she’s sweet… sometimes she’s sour
