No Naked Babies

Hear the version from 'Mistaken Identity":

Note: The version of the song on Mistaken Identity has slightly different lyrics and originally had a different title.

             /G                      /G
You know the baby was bathing in her parents' bathtub,
     /G                                /G
And I heard her father splash her as he gave her a scrub,
      /D                        /D
Then I heard her footsteps as he pulled out the plug,
               G              /D
And he said, "No naked babies running on a rug.
  /C /C     /G  /G
No no, no no no,
          /D                             /D
You know I told you before that you're as cute as a bug,
             /G                 /D
But there are no naked babies allowed on a rug."

Now the baby is running all over the floor,
And she's giggling and heading straight to the front door.
Now, her mother is laughing, and to her she confides,
"You know that no naked babies are going outside."
No no, no no no
You know I told you before, now let me be your guide,
'Cause there are no naked babies allowed to go outside."

Now a gleam's in her eye, and a grin's on her face,
And she's eyeing the furniture that's all over the place.
Now the baby is running from here to over there.
Her folks say, "No naked babies can go on a chair."
No no, no no no no no no.
You know I've told you before, and I know it's not fair
But there are no naked babies allowed on a chair."
