Little hands, little feet Tiny heart, tiny beat Oh, thinkin' about the time we spent falling in love (in love) I don't wanna leave you, I don't want him to see you But oh, when mama cries from daddy's lies Oh, my, please don't take him away, no, no, no Ooh, don't take him away Oh, 'cause I had my doubts, oh! Don't take my baby boy Don't take my pride and joy I hope I stay close, I hope I stay close All the pain, all the tears Many nights, many years This love for me is fading You waited, but I never came home to you I've never lied about us We were never supposed to be together When you see me with some other one And they know your son Oh, please don't take him away You said you're wrong but you knew Oh, cause I had my doubts, oh! Don't take my baby boy Don't take my pride and joy I hope I stay close, I hope I stay close There was a time before you And there will be a time after you With these vibes or not Walk tall little one Walk tall, walk tall Let me hold you, let me hold you
