Call it love and devotion
Call it a man's adoration
Foundation
A special bond of creation
Ha!
For the single moms out there
Go through frustration
Clean bandage, shine a ball
I'ma raise it, make them hear
She works the night
By the water
She's gonna stray
So far away from her father's daughter
She just wants a life
For her baby
All on her own, no one will come
She's got to save him
Daily struggle
She tells him, ooh, love
No one's ever gonna hurt you, love
I'm gonna give you all of my love
Nobody matters like you
She tells him, your life
Ain't gonna be nothing like my life
You're gonna grow and have a good life
I'm gonna do what I got to do
So rock-a-bye, baby, rock-a-bye
I'm gonna rock you
Rock-a-bye, baby, don't you cry
Somebody's got you
Rock-a-bye, baby, rock-a-bye
I'm gonna rock you
Rock-a-bye, baby, don't you cry
Rock-a-bye
Rock-a-bye, rock-a rock-a rock-a bye
Rock-a-bye
Rock-a-bye, rock-a rock-a rock-a bye
Single mama you doing out there
Facing the hard life without no fear
Just so you know that you really care
Cause any obstacle come you well prepared, right?
No, mama, you never shed tear
Now you have to shed things year after year
And you give the youth love the young compare
You find the school free and the bus fare

In a roundabout you can't find him nowhere
Steadily you work flow, you have a little know
So you must have no time, no time for your dear

Trying to keep him warm
Trying to keep out the cold

Nobody matters like you
