Mary Chapin Carpenter - Family Hands lyrics

You said you want to love my baby

But now you changed your mind

You said you’re gonna be true babe

Until the end of time

Then you started messin’ round with me baby

Tryin’ to do lovin’ daddy no good

Since you’ve been bad with my lovin’ baby

I don’t think I’m gonna move into your neighbourhood.

Eh, I don’t need no grocery boy

I’m gonna fetch them ev’ry day

I don’t want no grocery boy

You gotta keep that boy, keep that boy away.

I’ve been sittin’ here thinkin’

About that baby, baby, on my mind.

Well, I’ve been lovin’ you baby

But, oh baby, always treat me unkind.

I’ll buy you fur coat for christmas

And a diamond ring

No matter how you treat me baby

I can hear my lonely heart sing

Yeah. I been sittin’ here thinkin’ baby

I’ve been missin’ her, thinkin’ about

That baby on my mind.

I’ve gotta leave you baby

Babe, woman you been, uah-ha-ha, aha-ha-ha,

She’s been sittin’ here thinkin’

About that baby, on my mind.

Whoa-whoa-whoa.
