There's Nothing as Sweet as My Baby Lyrics

Now I like candy and I like cake and I like jam but goodness sake
There's nothing as sweet as my baby
She got golden hair and big blue eyes she could win a beauty prize
There's nothing as sweet as my baby
If I ever lose her I'll lay me down and die
If sugar seems sweet then you oughta meet my honey coated sweetie pie
I like candy and I like cake and I like jam but goodness sake
There's nothing as sweet as my baby
[ guitar - steel ]
Now I like candy and I like cake and I like jam but goodness sake
There's nothing as sweet as my baby
I'll be like a honeybee when she's buzzin' round with me
There's nothing as sweet as my baby
Got pounds of candy kisses but I can't spare an ounce
She's sweeter than wine and brother she's mine
And that's the only thing that counts
I like candy and I like cake and I like jam but goodness sake
There's nothing as sweet as my baby

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
