About to Be Your Baby Songtext
von Robin McKelle & The Flytones

I was ′bout to be, to be your baby
I was 'bout to be the one you loved
You had to make your money
Got no time for a honey

We had a time and place, we had a good thing going
We started out too quick
Without even knowin′
Now it' s clear as glass, shoulda seen it was too good to last

I ain't mad about it
I gotta call a spade a spade
Love just wasn′t in the cards
We never had it made
Best to call your bets off
When you don′t have a winning hand

I was bout to be your baby
I was bout to be your baby ooh
I was bout to be your leading lady
Then you went and started acting shady


There is no need to take it further
Point's been made
Loud and it′s clear
We pulled a hit and run and it was fun just for while

I'm not outta get ya
Or come to where you live
I′m the kind of woman who needs more than you could give
Best to change direction
When you see a block along the way

I was bout to be your baby
I was bout to be your baby ooh
I was bout to be your leading lady
Then you went and started acting shady
(Yes ya did now)


I was bout to be your baby
I was bout to be your baby ooh ooh
Come on said
I was bout to be your leading lady
Then you went and started acting shady
Yes ya did now
I was bout to be your baby
I was bout to be your baby
Said i ain't mad
And i ain′t sad no
No i ain't mad
And i ain't sad, at all

′Bout to be
′Bout to be ooh
Went and started actin'
Went and started actin′
Went and started actin' shady
