Talk to me Baby was from the Broadway show FOXY, starring Bert Lahr. The sheet music was published by COMMANDER. Over the last two weeks I have had several e-mails requesting information on availability of the sheet music.

If it is still published you might want to look at

there are also several dealers of collectible sheet music that may have a copy for sale. You may want to be in touch with them.

for research and educational purposes:

If you cannot toss your heart gaily in the ring, love me while the moment lingers If you cannot cross your heart that I'm everything Try at least to cross your fingers Talk to me baby tell me lies Tell me lies as sweet as apple pies Whisper you tremble with a wild desire to light the fire in my eyes tell me I'm marvelous exaggerate prevaricate if you must just talk to me baby soft and low then if you decide it's really so, swear you'll be mine forever otherwise just talk to me and tell me lies, lies, lies, lies, great big lies, Talk to me baby tell me lies. tell me lies as sweet as apple pies and if your lips have never told a fib you might adlib with your eyes say that we're helpless in the hands of fate prevaricate if you must just talk to me baby soft and low then if you decide it's really so, swear you'll be mine forever otherwise just talk to me and tell me lies, lies, lies, lies, great big lies, who shuts their umbrella up or their bumber shoot, when it's absolutely pouring, who shuts any fella up when he's so darned cute, and his mind is busy soaring? Talk to me baby tell me lies Tell me lies as sweet as apple pies Whisper while you tremble with a wild desire to light the fire in my eyes tell me I'm marvelous exaggerate prevaricate if you must just talk to me baby soft and low, then if you decide its really so, swear you'll be mine forever otherwise just talk to me and tell me lies, lies, lies, lies, great big lies.
