Baby here I stand before you

With my heart in my hand

I put it to you mama

Hoping that you'll understand



Oh, baby

Mama, please don't dog me 'round

Yeah I, I would rather love you, baby

Than anyone else I know in town



This is my confession, Mama

And it's sung by all your song

It proves that I'm in heaven, Mama

When you hold me in your arms



Well, baby

Can I have you for myself

Yeah, if I can't have you, baby

I don't want nobody else



Well, baby

Don't you want a man like me

Well, baby

Don't you want a man like me

Yeah, think about your future, baby

Forget about your used to be
