Rock-Olga Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you look at my baby, you gotta see me
If you smile at my baby, oh, well, smile at me
He's walking by my side, he's my living joy and pride
And where my baby goes, he goes with me

If you think of my baby, oh, well, think of me
If you flirt with my baby, oh, you'll deal with me
He's a real life living god so you just let him be

'Cause where my baby goes, he goes with me

If you talk about baby, oh, there's trouble with me
I don't mean maybe, just try and see
He's sweet from head to toes, I love him goodness knows
And where my baby goes, he goes with me
Yeah

Come on

If you look at my baby, you gotta see me
If you smile at my baby, oh, well, smile at me
He's walking by my side, he's my living joy and pride

And where my baby goes, he goes with me
He goes with me
