When My Baby Smiles at Me is the name of a popular song with music by Bill Munro with words by Andrew B. Sterling and Ted Lewis, that was published by Harry Von Tilzer Music Publishing in 1920. It was the first big hit for clarinettist, vocalist and comedian Ted Lewis (1892–1971). Ted Lewis's jazz band recording in 1920, became his signature tune, and spent 18 weeks on the charts (seven weeks at No. 1). Ted Lewis re-recorded it several times over the years. The tune was also covered by other artists of the time.

Bing Crosby recorded it in 1956 for his album Songs I Wish I Had Sung the First Time Around.
