There are no actual words recorded which John spoke as he baptized Christ, only those which he spoke before, these I paraphrase. John said that it should have been Christ who should be baptizing John and not the other way round. He felt that he was not worthy to perform the ceremony.

Jesus didn't baptize people:

Joh 4:1 The Pharisees heard that Jesus was winning and baptizing more disciples than John.

Joh 4:2 (Actually, Jesus himself did not baptize anyone; only his disciples did.)

When John's disciples told him people were going to Jesus, John said

Joh 3:30 He must become more important while I become less important."

You can read the full account of what John the Baptist said in the gospel of John chapter 3.
