Dick Powell sang this song of admiration to Olivia DeHavilland in the 1938 film, "Hard To Get." It wasn't long before Bing Crosby's recording (with brother Bob's orchestra) was the number one hit on the charts, closely followed by the Tommy Dorsey recording.* In 1946 it could be heard in "The Eddie Cantor Story," and in 1949 Doris Day sang it in "My Dream Is Yours." Bobby Darin vocalised a hit recording in 1969 reaffirming the "perennial favorite" status of this tune.
* The Ol'Kunnel tap danced to the Tommy Dorsey recording in an all-girl chorus in the early 80s during a review at the high school. Although in the middle of a group of 20 girls, nobody seemed to notice his many faux pas steps. (grin)

You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby,
You must have been a wonderful child.
When you were only startin' to go to kindergarten,
I bet you drove the little boys wild.
And when it came to winning blue ribbons
You must have shown the other kids how.
I can see the judges eyes as they handed you the prize,
I bet you made the cutest bow.
Oh! You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby,
'Cause baby look at you now.
