Little Babies

Song is from Dig Me Out CD/LP, which is available at Kill Rock Stars.
Official lyrics come with the album; I have modified them so that the lyrics posted here
reflect what I actually hear the band singing in the song.
Because that took me lots of time and effort, please do let me know
if you would like to use the lyrics I have posted here on your site.
Or even just reference my site on yours. Thanks!

I'm the water, I'm the dishes, I'm the soap
(it's so good, it's so good, baby I wish, I wish you would)
I will comfort, make you clean, help you cope
(it's so bad, it's so bad, baby I wish we never even had (???))
when you're tired, feeling helpless, come inside I am the shelter
(it's too fine, it's too fine, baby would you give it to be* mine (???))
and then when you're feeling better I'll watch you go
(I need more, need more, baby I need a little bit more)

dum dum dee dee dee dum dum dee dum do
all the little babies go oh, oh I want to
dum dum dee dee dee dum dum dee dum yeah
rock the little babies with one, two, three

are you hungry, did you eat before the show?
(it's so good, it's so good, baby, I know we really, really should)
I peeled potatoes, set the table, washed the floor
(it's so bad, it's so bad, baby I wish, I wish we hadn't)
I know the others treat you rough, and when you know you've had enough
(it's too fine, it's too fine, baby would you give it to be* mine (???))
you'll come and see me, cos you know I'm always here
(I need more, need more, need just a little, little bit more)

dum dum dee dee dee dum dum dee dum do
all the little babies go oh, oh I want to
dum dum dee dee dee dum dum dee dum yeah
rock the little babies with one, two, three, four

mother's little helper
mother's little helper
(I need more, need more, need more, just a little bit more)
mother's little helper
mother's little helper
(I need more, need more, need more, just a little bit)

dum dum dee dee dee dum dum dee dum do
all the little babies go oh, oh I want to
dum dum dee dee dee dum dum dee dum yeah
rock the little babies with one, two, three, four
