"Baby Got Book"

Lyrics by Dan Smith; Copyright 2004

Intro

Oh my goodness, Becky, look at her Bible

It is so big

She looks like one of those preacher guys girlfriends

But...you know...Who understands those preacher boys

They only talk to her because she looks like Mother Teresa, ok?

I mean her Bible...it's just so big

I can't believe it's so huge

Uggh! It gross!

Look, she's just so...righteous

Verse 1

I like big Bibles and I can not lie

You Christian brothers can't deny

That when a girl walks in with a KJV

And a book mark in Proverbs

You get stoked

Got her name engraved

So you know that girl is saved

It looks like one of those large ones

With plenty o' space in the margins

Oh baby, I wanna read witcha

Cause your Bible's got pictures

My minister tried to console me

But that Book you got makes ("M-m-me so holy")

Ooh, momma-mia

You say you want koinonia

Well, bless me, bless me

And teach me about John Wesley

I saw her praying

While I was DJing

She got grace...pretty face

She ain't goin' down to the bad place

I'm tired of heathen guys

Sayin' they like pocket-size

Ask the average Christian to take a look

She's gotta pack much Book

So...Fellas (Yeah), fellas (Yeah)

Has your girlfriend got the Book (Oh yeah!)

Well, read it (Read it!), read it (Read it!), read that Holy Book

Baby got Book

Chorus

(NIV with a ribbon bookmark)

Baby got Book

(NIV with a ribbon bookmark)

Verse 2

I like 'em leather and bound

It's 50 pounds

I just can't understand

How it is, some weenie

Wants the Bible on CD

She wanna get you saved

Amen! Double up! A-men!

I ain't talkin' about a paraphrase

Cuz Paul wouldn't use those anyways

like 'em real thick and red-letteredYou can't find nothin' betterSouthpaw's in love

Bibles that big are unheard of

So I'm sittin' here thinkin' "What if...

I find me a girl that shows midriff?"

You can have those bimbos

I'll keep those chick that do devos

A word to the Christian sistas

I can't resist yaI'll do God's time witcha

But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna pray

Til the break of day

Baby, got it goin' on

Like the wife in Pro-verbs 31

We just might get engaged

When we finish reading this page

Cuz it's worn and it's torn

And I know this girl's reborn

So ladies (yeah), ladies (yeah)

Do you wanna save people from Hades (yeah) Then read it...'til the pages fall out

Even white preachers got to shout

Baby got Book

(Thompson Chain with big red letters)

Baby got Book

Yeah baby

When it comes to a good book

Stephen King's resume just can't compare

39 + 27 = 66 books

And if you're Catholic...there's even more

So your girlfriend quotes Bill Hybels

But does she got a big Bible?

Cuz that little things she's got won't start a revival

My Bible study don't want none,Unless you got Book, Hon

...You can read Clancy or Grisham

But please don't loose this Book

Some brothers wanna play that hard hard role

And tell you that Book's too old

So they toss it and burn it

And I pull up quick to just learn it

So your girl likes paperback? Well I ain't down with that

Cuz my girlfriend's hot her Bible's rockin'

And she's got good doctrine

To the atheist chicks who try to dis

You ain't it Miss Priss

Give me a Christian, I'm insistin'

And I'll greet her with some holy kissin'

Some pervert tried to chase But he didn't make it past first base

She's quick to resist temptation

And she loves a new translation

So ladies who were lost and found

If you want the triple-six thrown down

Dial 1-800-reads-a-lot

And teach me about those Psalms

Baby got Book

(NIV with a ribbon bookmark)

Baby got Book

(Thompson Chain with big red letters)

Bible college knowledge but she still got Book (4 Xs)
