lyrics

Baby, I'd be tired too
If i worked as hard as you
Baby, I'd be nervous too
but God made mommy baby for you

Just sit back and relax
I'll take care of everything
I'm a mommy chicken
and you're under my little wing

You're my man
And I promised not to say it but I love you
You're my man
and baby I'd do anything for you

Baby, you can talk to mommy
Lay your face upon my breast
Leave all your troubles behind you
You're tired and you need your rest

Baby you wanna see a doctor
You wanna meet the creator
Baby you're looking for some answers
Just tell mommy what's the matter

You're my man
And I promised not to say it but I love you
You're my man
and baby I'd do anything for you

But when your chemicals go bad
Baby when you beat me black and blue
I'll think of all the good times we've had
And I'll go right on loving you

well I'm sure glad I'm not a man
But a woman ain't doodly-squat
so I'm gonna stand by my man
cause that man he's all I've got

You're my man
And I promised not to say it but I love you
You're my man
and baby I would die for you
