Now everybody's talkin'

Baby all over town

Everybody's talkin'

Baby all over town

Now everybody's talkin'

Baby all over town

I got to put you down

I got to put you down



Now my friends they tell me

About somethin' they seen

My friends they tell me

About somethin' they seen

They saw your face

Down to Anna Mae's place



You was with some other guy

He had a straw and a pipe

You was with some other guy

He had a straw and a pipe

He had a sleek Cadillac

He is gonna break your life



Four little children

No mama in the house

Four little children

No mama in the house

She's stayin' out all night

Broken buttons on her blouse



No food on the table

No food in the fridge

No food on the table

No food in the fridge

Just a straw and a pipe

That's where your mama is



(solo)



Just a straw and a pipe

Is gonna break your life

Oooh a straw and a pipe

Is gonna break your life

Just a sleek Cadillac

You know you can't get back



Mmmm... baby

Whoa... baby

Mmmm... baby

Mmm... baby
