Baby, your dada loves you

And I'ma always be here for you no matter what happens

You're all I got in this world

I would never give you up for nothin'

Nobody in this world is ever gonna keep you from me

I love you

Come on Hai-Hai, we goin' to the beach

Grab a couple of toys and let dada strap you in the car seat

Oh, where's mama? She's takin' a little nap in the trunk

Oh, that smell? Dada musta runned over a skunk

Now, I know what you're thinkin', it's kinda late to go swimmin'

But you know your mama, she's one of those type of women

That do crazy things, and if she don't get her way she'll throw a fit

Don't play with dada's toy knife, honey, let go of it! (No!)

And don't look so upset, why you actin' bashful?

Don't you wanna help dada build a sandcastle? (Yeah!)

And mama said she wants to show you how far she can float

And don't worry about that little boo-boo on her throat

It's just a little scratch – it don't hurt

Her was eatin' dinner while you were sweepin'

And spilled ketchup on her shirt

Mama's messy, ain't she? We'll let her wash off in the water

And me and you can pway by ourselves, can't we?

Just the two of us, just the two of us

And when we ride

Just the two of us, just the two of us

Just you and I

Just the two of us, just the two of us

And when we ride

Just the two of us, just the two of us

Just you and I

See, honey, there's a place called Heaven and a place called Hell

A place called prison and a place called jail

And dada's probably on his way to all of 'em except one

‘Cause mama's got a new husband and a stepson

And you don't want a brother, do ya? (Nah)

Maybe when you're old enough

To understand a little better, I'll explain it to ya

But for now we'll just say mama was real, real bad

She was bein' mean to dad and made him real, real mad

But I still feel sad that I put her on timeout

Sit back in your chair, honey, quit tryna climb out!

I told you it's okay, Hai-Hai, want a ba-ba?

Take a night-night? Nan-a-boo, goo-goo ga-ga?

Her make poo-poo ca-ca? Dada change your didee

Clean the baby up so her can take a nighty-nighty

Your dad'll wake her up as soon as we get to the water

'97 Bonnie and Clyde: me and my daughter

Just the two of us, just the two of us

And when we ride

Just the two of us, just the two of us

Just you and I

Just the two of us, just the two of us

And when we ride

Just the two of us, just the two of us

Just you and I

Wake up, sweepyhead, we're here, before we pway

We're gonna take mama for a wittle walk along the pier

Baby, don't cry, honey, don't get the wrong idea

Mama's too sweepy to hear you screamin' in her ear (mama!)

That's why you can't get her to wake, but don't worry

Dada made a nice bed for mommy at the bottom of the lake

Here, you wanna help dada tie a rope around this rock? (Yea)

We'll tie it to her footsie then we'll roll her off the dock

Ready now, here we go, on the count of free

One, two, free — whee! (Woosh!)

There goes mama, spwashin' in the water

No more fightin' with Dad, no more restrainin' order

No more stepdada, no more new brother

Blow her kisses bye-bye, tell mama you wuv her (mommy!)

Now we'll go play in the sand, build a castle and junk

But first, just help dad with two more things out the trunk

Just the two of us, just the two of us

And when we ride

Just the two of us, just the two of us

Just you and I

Just the two of us, just the two of us

And when we ride

Just the two of us, just the two of us

Just you and I

Just me and you, baby, is all we need in this world

Just me and you

Your dada will always be there for you

Your dada's always gonna love you, remember that

If you ever need me I will always be here for you

If you ever need anything, just ask

Dada will be right there

Your dada loves you — I love you, baby
