I gotta a girl who's always late 
Anytime we have a date 
But I love her 
Yes I love her 
I'm gonna walk 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 acting lately makes me doubt 
You is still my baby, baby 
Seems my flame in your heart's done gone out 
A woman is a creature that has always 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
