Everybody Loves A Pretty Baby Hank Thompson

[Verse 1]
On a January morning on a Louisiana farm
A couple was gifted with a baby
The town folks came to see her and showered her with gifts
'Cause everybody loves a pretty baby

[Verse 2]
Her daddy was so proud of her he took her everywhere
She was about 6 or 7 maybe
Everyone would put a nickel in her tiny hands
'Cause everybody loves a pretty baby

[Chorus]
Pretty baby, pretty baby
Yes everybody loves a pretty baby

[Verse 3]
I met her in high school and we fell so in love
That only God above could save me
I stayed right beside her and I kept her from the crowd
Since everybody loves a pretty baby

[Verse 4]
Soon we grew older she promised me her hand
She said she would never betray me
So I took her hand in mind knowing all the time
That everybody loves a pretty baby
