'Cause My Baby Says It's So 1937

Lots of little questions
used to bother me,
I know all the answers now,
I know ev'ry little "wherefore"
Ev'ry little "why" and "how"
I have no diploma,
I have no degree
from a university,
But I didn't really miss much
as long as I know this much:

White is black
and black is white
for no good reason
that I know,
Only that my baby
says it's so,
Night is day
and day is night,
the moon at noon
is all aglow,
Just because my baby
says it's so,
I caught her kissin'
someone else,
to my confusion,
She said what I saw
was an optical illusion,
I was wrong
and she was right
and as I said
a while ago,
That's because my baby
says it's so.

White is black
and black is white
for no good reason
that I know,
Only that my baby
says it's so,
Night is day
and day is night,
the moon at noon
is all aglow,
Just because my baby
says it's so,
I caught her kissin'
someone else,
to my confusion,
She said what I saw
was an optical illusion,
I was wrong
and she was right
and as I said
a while ago,
That's because my baby
says it's so.
