Lyrics

Intro

Verse
Go out, and find the father
So all of your kids can be fed
'cause if it's upto me, you know I'd help ya out
but ya see, there is a shade of doubt - oh-oh-oh
Go out, point to another
To someone you can rely
There's a brother here
And a brother there
But both have an alibi - so-oh-oh

Chorus
I ain't ya baby's daddy
Just 'cause you want me to be
I ain't the baby's daddy
So stop harass-ing me
I ain't ya baby's daddy
Just check the DNA
I ain't the baby's daddy
Don'tcha, don'tcha, don'tcha take my pay

Verse
If you, ever find the father
It'll be your lucky day
But think about, all the ones you blamed
Just to give your baby a name - oh-oh-oh
If you, just think about it
Search deep inside your soul
'cause all the drama and the pain
is rapidly getting old - so-oh-oh

Chorus
I ain't ya baby's daddy
Just 'cause you want me to be
I ain't the baby's daddy
So stop harass-ing me
I ain't ya baby's daddy
Just check the DNA
I ain't the baby's daddy
Don'tcha, don'tcha try to take my pay

[Bridge]

I ain't ya baby's daddy
Just 'cause you want me to be
I ain't the baby's daddy
So stop harass-ing me
I ain't ya baby's daddy
Just check the DNA
I ain't the baby's daddy
Don'tcha, don'tcha try to take my pay

I ain't ya baby's daddy
But you want let me be
I ain't the baby's daddy
Guess you're to blind to see
I ain't ya baby's daddy
Just check the DNA
I ain't the baby's daddy
It don't even look like me
I ain't, I ain't the baby's daddy, oh-no.

Repeat
Adlib and Out

First off:
Smart, Honest and Straight-Forward Lyrics (a bold move in this current climate of 'sugar-coated' wordings). The vocals are good (even the harmony-dub), and the keyboard work is stellar.
