Baby Why Not Lyrics

Baby Why Not

(Dwight Yoakam)

 

 Oh baby why not

 Just take one more chance

 And risk all we got

 On this luckless romance

 If someone asks why

 We'll say we forgot

 And went kinda crazy

 Oh baby why not

 

 If love needs a fool

 For it to survive

 It sure looks to me

 Like we both qualify

 And a pair of fools

 Will always beat one

 So let's play the cards

 And get this deal done

 

 Oh baby why not

 Bet big on the bliss

 And laugh in the face

 Of what all odds insist

 If someone asks why

 We'll say we forgot

 And both lost our minds

 Oh baby why not

 

 Oh baby please

 You and I

 Are exactly what we need

 So let's throw away all care

 Move out on the edge somewhere

 Find a place and just swing there in the breeze

 

 Oh baby why not

 Just take one more chance

 And risk all we got

 On this luckless romance

 If someone asks why

 We'll say we forgot

 And threw our lives away

 Oh baby why not

 And went kinda crazy

 Oh baby why not

 And both lost our minds

 Oh baby why not

 

 Oh baby, oh baby,

 Oh baby, oh baby why not

 

 Why not, why not

 Why not, why not

 Why not, why not

 Why not, why not

 Why not

 

 Give me three good reasons, and I'll let you up

 No, wait a minute, give me five good reasons and I'll let you up

 Uh huh, Uh huh

 No, four don't count, 'cause that's your mother's reason

 Hey, don't bite me

 

 Oh baby why not
