The Baby Is Mine

He should know that I don't want her,
When I see her I hardly speak
I always wish them the best of luck
And I only call there once a week

When I drop by the house,
I'm quiet as a mouse
But he always starts something
Every time

I got my rights
I know she's his wife

But the baby is mine

Whenever I go
By that place
He's got that "he wants my wife" look
On his face

When all I want
Is what's fair
I don't mean any harm
By going there

And as for his woman
She's his all alone
I'm not trying
To break up his home

I've got my rights
And I know she's his wife
But the baby is mine
The baby's mine

He's misconstrued
What a black man could see
I don't want her
And she don't want me

I'm not just a father
I'm also a man
I'm going to see my child
Every chance that I get can

And as for the woman
She says all alone
I'm not trying to break up that man's home

You can bet your life,
She might be his wife,
But the baby is mine

The baby's mine
All mine
All mine, mine, mine
The baby's mine
The baby's mine
