[Intro: Wyclef Jean]   I want to apologize for makin you wait so long for the sequel   Wyclef, Mary J., this one called What About the Baby   You ever been like      [Verse One: Wyclef]   Let me talk to my daughter   Daughter this is your poppa   I know it's been a while   We haven't talked      [Mary J. Blige]   But daddy you've been gone   And me and mom have been all alone   It's been a struggle and you weren't there for us   He say      [Wyclef Jean]   Okay, when I called you   She wouldn't put you on the phone   She call the police, restrainin order   50 feet, from my home   I tried, I ain't lyin   It's so sad that the heavens cryin, AYY~!   Once a boy and twice a man   I'm just tryin to do the best I can   Give me a chance girl      [Chorus: Wyclef]   A grown man ain't supposed to cry   So why does water fill my eyes when I hear your voice   Everything gon' be alright   Baby girl I'm by your side, dry your eyes      [Verse Two: Mary J. Blige]   Let's talk this over   Now see I heard everything that you told her   But it's gon' take more than words   for you to be a father, uh-huh   Responsibilities of a man   Like stayin faithful just for the fam'   What if she knew that you chose   another over her mother, aowwww!   So you called her   and I wouldn't put her on the phone   I called the police yes, restrainin order   50 feet, from my home   I tried, I ain't lyin   It's so sad that the heavens are cryin, yeahhh   Once a girl, twice of a man   And I'ma try to do the best I can   I can't give you a chance noooo      [Chorus: Blige]   A woman ain't supposed to cry   So why don't you just wipe your eyes, dry your eyes   You've learned a house is not a home   When you're living all alone, and you want back home      [Verse Three: Wyclef]   WAIT A MINUTE GIRL! You're my joy, happiness that you bring   Turn the fall back to spring girl, you're my bling   You a hip-hop song I heard for the first time time   Studied all the words to the rhyme   You're my life, without you there's no sun, there's no moon   There's no stars, shinin in the ni-iight      [Mary J. Blige]   But if I give you a chance, would you show me you care   Be a man, no matter what the circumstances   AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOW~!      [Chorus: Wyclef]   A grown man ain't supposed to cry   So why does water fill my eyes when I hear your voice      [Blige]   You've learned a house is not a home   When you're living all alone, and you want back home      [Chorus: Wyclef]   A grown man ain't supposed to cry   So why does water fill my eyes when I hear your voice   (What about the baby~! What about the baby~!)   Everything gon' be alright   Baby girl I'm by your side, I apologize!   I cry, and I cry, I cry   [fades out]
