I'm just as sad as I can be
Oh, I feel bad, I feel terrible
I'm just as sad as I can be
I let a boy, 12 years old
Take my baby away from me
He used to hang around my crib
Until late into the night
Oh, he used to hang around my crib
Till late into the night
Well, I never dreamed that my baby
And that boy could be so tight
[Rockin' Guitar Solo]
Well, if the young boy hangs around you
You should do what I shoulda did
Oh, if the young boy hangs around you
You should do what I shoulda did
Man, you send him on over to your neighbors
And hope your neighbors like kids
