Well they took a little honey from a honey tree
They dressed it up and they called at me

Now everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

Well half past nine and half past four
Fifty women knocking on my door

And everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

I went out last night, I didn't stay late
'Fore I got home I had nineteen dates

And everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

Me and my girl, sittin' in the shade
Talking about the money that she has made

And everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now
Get down

Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now
