I got a gal that's always late, ev'ry time we have a date,
But I love her, yes I love her,
I'm gonna walk right up to her gate and see if I can get it straight,
'Cause I want her, I'm gonna ask her.
Is you is or is you ain't my baby?
The way you're actin' lately makes me doubt
Yous is still my baby, baby --
Seems my flame in your heart's done gone out.
A woman is a creature that has al - ways been strange;
Just when you're sure of one,
You find she's gone and made a change.
Is you is or is you ain't my baby?
Maybe baby's found somebody new,
Or is my baby still my baby true?
