Yesterday She Was My Baby
(Rachel Deering)


Yesterday she was my baby
Today she’s walking on her own
I look at her I don’t think maybe
I know that my oh my, time has flown

Yesterday she started crawling
Today she’s running through the lawn
Yesterday she had a bath in the sink
Today she turned the sprinkler on

She hears the ice cream man
He’s been coming down our street
I buy her a Popsicle
To cool my baby down in this Texas heat

Yesterday she was my baby
Today she’s walking on her own
I look at her I don’t think maybe
I know that my oh my, my baby’s grown

Yesterday she called me “mama”
Now she’s telling mama what to do
Yesterday I bought her booties
Today she’s wearing mama’s shoes

Last night I read her a nursery rhyme
Soon she’ll be reading one to me
I sit and watch her sleeping
My little baby is all I see

She hears the ice cream man
He’s been coming down our street
I buy her a Popsicle
To cool my baby down in this Texas heat

Yesterday she was my baby
Today she’s still my baby too
I guess that when you have a baby
That baby’s always a baby to you
