Ace of Base's ALL THAT SHE WANTS is another baby or babe or bae or gushy-bumps

Play along at home with the lyrics:

[intro]

She leads a lonely life

Mm, she leads a lonely life

[Verse 1]

When she woke up late in the morning light

And the day had just begun

She opened up her eyes and thought

"Oh, what a morning"

It's not a day for work

It's a day for catching tan

Just lying on the beach and having fun

She's going to get you

[Chorus]

All that she wants is another baby

She's gone tomorrow boy

All that she wants is another baby

All that she wants is another baby

She's gone tomorrow boy

All that she wants is another baby

[Post-Chorus]

All that she wants - all that she wants

[Verse 2]

So if you are in sight and the day is right

She's a hunter you're the fox

The gentle voice that talks to you

Won't talk forever

It's a night for passion

But the morning means goodbye

Beware of what is flashing in her eyes

She's going to get you

[Chorus x2]

[Outro]

All that she wants … all that she wants
