Baby Girl (Maggie's Song)

Baby Girl, don't take that step

Sweet child you hear me say

His road is just so full of pain

The road that goes his way



Baby Girl, you've got your daddy's looks

And you've got your mama's lovin' ways

But this foolish love has got you in

A black and troubled daze



Baby Girl, you hear your mama.

He's not the man to treat you right

Baby Girl, he's no good for you

No matter what he says at night



Baby Girl, I've seen his lyin' eyes

And I've known his very kind before

You think you know and you're up and you're ready to go

But he'll just leave you wanting more



Baby Girl, you hear your mama.

He's not the man to treat you right

Baby Girl, he's no good for you

No matter what he says at night



So Baby Girl, if you go that way

When the road gets so dark and blue

Just remember where your mama is

Remember, I'm waitin' here for your



Baby Girl, Baby Girl

Baby Girl, Oh Baby Girl

No matter what he says at night.
