When my best friend said

She had lost her man

To her babysitter

I thought she was lying

I said no sixteen year old schoolgirl

Could ever take a man of mine

Staying home with our baby all the time

It kept me kind of broken hearted

So I went and hired myself a babysitter

And that's when my trouble all started

This sixteen year old chick walked in

With a skirt up to her waist

She had a truckload of you know what

And all of it in place

I should have been aware

Mmm hmm, ooh, ooh

Of the babysitter

Oh, yeah, yeah

I should have known

From the jump, yeah

She was a man getter

I should have been aware, uh huh

Of the babysitter, aah

I should have known from the jump, yeah

She was a man getter, yes, she was

When I found out exactly what was going on

There wasn't much that I could do

The babysitter had his heart and soul

And all of his money too

You know, I should have been aware

Ooh, ooh, of the babysitter, hoo

I should have known from the jump, yeah

She was a man getter, yes, she was

So, girls, if you want your man

And no one else

Buy yourself some sizzle pants

And babysit your very own self

Beware, girls

You better beware

Of the babysitter, yeah

Rock, rock, rock your baby

Rock, rock, rock your baby
