[00:00.00]Daddy Thing (Amended Album Version) - Jaheim
[00:04.20]Who who did the daddy thing
[00:07.03]When a father wasn't there
[00:09.53]Who did the daddy thing
[00:12.56]Now usually
[00:13.95]If there's a car seat
[00:15.04]Up in the back seat
[00:16.28]Or a tiny shoe swinging
[00:18.07]From the rear view mirror
[00:19.69]A ring on her hand
[00:20.87]I could never be her man
[00:22.92]But we got so close
[00:24.61]Blew all my dough
[00:25.68]In the baby gap school clothes
[00:27.89]Pretty little angel in berets and bows
[00:30.19]And a button nose
[00:31.25]After a while
[00:32.42]Started calling me daddy
[00:34.38]I should've known that it couldn't last
[00:37.18]Should've known that you'd take him right back
[00:39.82]I should've took off running
[00:41.40]When I first saw her coming
[00:42.81]Would have never gotten so attached
[00:45.49]When her father wasn't there to participate
[00:48.20]He got hit with a bid upstate
[00:50.51]When she needed diapers wipes
[00:52.55]Food and baby shoes
[00:54.10]Won't you tell me who
[00:56.40]Who did the daddy thing
[00:59.00]I gave her everything
[01:01.72]Who did the daddy thing
[01:04.77]Nobody nobody but me
[01:07.71]Now normally
[01:08.90]I would just hit and run
[01:10.56]But can't you see
[01:11.56]I'm about you and your little one
[01:13.31]I took the jokes from all of my folks
[01:15.77]How I got caught up playing step daddy
[01:18.42]I got my income tax and said f**k it
[01:20.89]And traded in your bucket
[01:22.58]'Cause that coupe wasn't big enough
[01:24.67]I wasn't trying to replace him
[01:26.74]Now that he's back around
[01:28.68]Guess you don't need me now
[01:33.14]You don't need me anymore
[01:35.09]I should've known that it couldn't last
[01:37.86]Should've known that you'd take him right back
[01:40.49]I should've took off running
[01:42.12]When I first saw her coming
[01:43.52]Would have never gotten so attached
[01:46.19]When her father wasn't there to participate
[01:48.81]He got hit with a bid upstate
[01:51.51]When she needed diapers wipes
[01:53.04]Food and baby shoes
[01:54.80]Won't you tell me who
[01:57.05]Who did the daddy thing
[01:59.74]I gave her everything
[02:02.15]Who did the daddy thing
[02:04.78]Nobody but me
[02:08.29]On her first day of school holidays
[02:10.93]From the very first steps she made
[02:13.47]When she needed love trust patience and truth
[02:16.45]I want you to tell me who
[02:19.20]Who did the daddy thing
[02:21.69]I gave her everything
[02:24.23]Who did the daddy thing
[02:28.31]Nobody but me
[02:31.13]Longs walks with
[02:32.38]Piggy backs and
[02:33.78]Baby cribs and light blue timbs
[02:36.37]I did it all out of love
[02:39.92]All in the name of love
[02:42.21]Every christmas
[02:43.44]X-box's little dresses
[02:45.87]Tennis bracelets
[02:47.41]I did all all just because
[02:51.87]When there was no one no one
[02:55.74]When nobody else was there for her
[02:58.03]When her father wasn't there to participate
[03:00.54]He got hit with a bid upstate
[03:03.26]When she needed diapers wipes
[03:04.82]Food and baby shoes
[03:06.38]Won't you tell me who
[03:09.01]Who did the daddy thing
[03:11.19]And you know I was the man
[03:14.18]Who did the daddy thing
[03:16.27]A shoulder to cry on
[03:18.37]Someone to talk to
[03:20.16]On her first day of school holidays
[03:22.61]From the very first steps she made
[03:25.28]When she needed love trust
