Tall Order Baby
Performer(s): Mark Knopfler



Well gimme a little loving in the morning
I want a little loving (...)
But you want to get your loving in the evening
When I want to get some loving in the day

I tell her that I'm working in the morning
I tell her that I gotta get my rest
She tells me she's a-working on her loving
And she tells me that my loving is the best

Well it's a tall order baby
And it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow 

Well I don't want to go to sleep on you baby
I don't want to go to sleep on you now
But if I'm going to go to sleep on you baby
Well I'm gonna do it any how 

Well don't you turn your back on me darling
Don't you know I'd like to stay up and play
But if I turn my back on you darling
You're going to do it some other way 

Well it's a tall order baby
And it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow 

It's a tall order baby
Well it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow 

Well I don't want to go to sleep on you baby
I don't want to go to sleep on you now
But if I'm going to go to sleep on you baby
Well I'm gonna do it any how 

Well don't you turn your back on me darling
Don't you know I'd like to stay up and play
But if I turn my back on you darling
You're going to do it some other way 

Well it's a tall order baby
And it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow 

Well it's a tall order baby
And it's a tall order now
Well it's a tall order baby
But we gotta get our loving somehow
