There's a real good woman
In almost every home
Who's just plain sick and tired
Of being done wrong
Cleaning up behind you
Wearing one faded dress
Bearing sons for you every year
While you stick out your chest
You can't miss what you can't measure
That's what you tell us all the time
You go around bragging about your son
But this oughta blow your mind when I tell you
Mama's baby, and Daddy's maybe
Mama's baby, Daddy's maybe
You take Johnny
A real good friend of mine
Always bragging how he makes his
Woman walk the line
Everybody called him a player
Except behind his back
He used to say, "you couldn't fool a fooler"
But his old lady fixed that
You can't miss what you can't measure
Was Johnny's old slogan too
Now he's walking round with his head hung down
Wonderin' what he oughta do, 'cause we're saying
Mama's baby, and Daddy's maybe
Mama's little baby, Daddy's maybe
Girls, I know what true love will make you do
You better think twice before you make your move
There ain't no sense in both of you bein' a fool, no no
A man can't do no more than you let him do
Fellas how long do you think
You can keep your woman sweet?
When you know that you only come home
To change your clothes and eat
Now you might have a son
Who just don't look like you
Even though you got somebody
You sure ain't got no proof
You can't miss what you can't measure
Is what you tell us all the time
And while you goin' around bragging 'bout your son
You better keep this in mind, they're saying
Mama's baby, Daddy's maybe
(Aw, check now)
Mama's baby, Daddy's maybe
(You better do what I say)
Mama's baby, Daddy's maybe
(Go on, fellas, now now)
Mama's baby, Daddy's maybe
(Listen to, listen to me)
