V.I.P.

(album: Soulful Tapestry - 1971)

He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me
My baby
He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me (He's my baby)

He's no celebrity to you, he's just a guy (My baby)
If you past him on the street, you just walk on by
But when I see his face, he makes my day complete
I rolled the red carpet at my baby's feet
I treat him the way a man should be treated
I'll let him know I love him and that he's always needed

He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me
My baby
He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me, yes, he is

He had his ups and downs, but I'm proud of him (My baby)
He stands tall in every crowd 'cause I love him
The way that he loves me was his claim to fame
You may not even know my baby's name
He's in the limelight wherever we go
And he always lets me know that I'm a star of the show

He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me
That's my baby
He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me, oh yeah

When I see his face, he makes my day complete
I rolled the red carpet at my baby's feet
I treat him the way a man should be treated
I'll let him know I love him and that he's always needed

He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me
Oh, my baby
He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me, yes, he is

When times are bad and he's feeling sad
I'll put my hand in his hand to let him know I understand
He's a V.I.P.
A very important person to me
