Come and Be My Baby
Come and Be My Baby - meaning Summary
Comfort Amid Chaos
The poem offers a direct, colloquial invitation to refuge and intimacy amid social and personal disorder. It contrasts chaotic public scenes — drifting drivers, substance use, alarming news — with a calm, confident speaker who proposes a simple alternative: a shared, stabilizing relationship. The repetition of I got it and Come and be my baby frames the speaker as both rescuer and companion, transforming anxiety into trust and immediate solace.

I got it. Come. And be my baby. Some prophets say the world is gonna end tomorrow But others say we've got a week or two The paper is full of every kind of blooming horror And you sit wondering What you're gonna do. I got it. Come. And be my baby.
