You can look, but you can't touch You can talk, but don't you talk too much
You can smile for a little while You can sing, but don't try to swing
When you see my baby When you talk to my baby
Keep your hands off my baby, pretty baby Keep your hands off my baby, pretty baby
Do you hear me? Do you understand me?
When you see my girl walking by You can't even go and wink your eye
And if she comes to you that way If she goes, she'll have to stay
But I got faith in my baby Cause I'm talking about my baby
Keep your hands off my baby, pretty baby Keep your hands off my baby, pretty baby
Do you hear me? Do you understand me?
Say if you've been scheming on my girl You really, you just can't see
Cause all around my baby there are no trespassin' signs
You'll see exactly what I mean
Keep your hands off my baby, pretty baby Keep your hands off my baby, pretty baby
You can look, but you can't touch And you can talk, but don't you talk too much
And you can smile for a little while You can sing, but don't try to swing
When you see my baby When you talk to my baby
Keep your hands off my baby, pretty baby Keep your hands off my baby, pretty baby
