Ernest Tubb Our Baby's Book lyrics

There's a new star in heaven tonight
The brightest of them all up there
As we gaze at the sky we wonder
Why that the Lord took our baby so fair

For he was as sweet as the rose
His eyes was so big bright and blue
And it made me so glad, they said, he favors his dad
And my wife that he's the image of you

Now you should see our baby's book
It's pink and bordered with gold
Though it's not complete
But on the first sheet our darling's life story is told


It tells of the days that he came
To add more joy to our home
After seven short weeks our Master did speak
And now Rodger Dale has gone

But I know that he's happy up there
I can vision each action and look
Friends as you travel on, please remember this song
For it's written in our baby's book
