I got a gal who's always late
Everytime we ever have a date
But I love her, yes, I love her

I'm gonna walk up to her gate
And see if I can finally get it straight
'Cause I need her, I'm gonna ask her

Is you is or is you ain't my baby?
The way you're actin' lately makes me doubt
Yous is still my baby, baby
Seems the flame in your heart's done gone out

A woman is a creature who has always been strange
Just when you're sure of one
You'll find she's gone and made a change

Is you is or is you ain't my baby?
Maybe baby's found somebody new
Or is my baby still my baby true?
