Lyrics:

When I was born, my mother died
She said, “Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye”
I said, “Where you goin? I’m just born”
She said, “I’ll only be gone for a while”
My mother loved to leave in style
That’s why God made the movies

Well, I laid around in my swaddling clothes
Until the doctor came and turned out the light
Then I packed my bag
And my name tag
I stole away into the night
Hoping things would work out right
That’s why God made the movies

Say you will, say you will
Say you’ll take me to your lovin’ breast
Say you’ll nourish me
With your tenderness
The way the ladies sometimes do
Say you won’t, say you won’t!
Say you won’t leave me for no other man
Say you’ll love me just the way I am
Say you will, baby, now
Say you will, just say you will
Say you wil

When I was born, my mother died
She said, “Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
And since that day
I’ve made my way
The notorious boy of the wild
Adopted by the wolves when he was a child.

That’s why God
That’s why God
That’s why God made the movies
