LYRICS

It's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, it's too bad baby
But I gotta face reality
It's too bad, it's too bad
Too bad baby, yeah
But I gotta face reality

Today you had a visitor
Or should I say an old friend
But wait a minute
That's not where it ends no
Is there something that you want to tell me?
Cause I'm believing what your friends say
'Bout your hidden secret seeds

And girlfriend
She wasn't disrespectful
In fact, she's a hundred percent sure And how can I argue with her
Holding a baby with eyes like yours
She said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be anymore us
Won't deny it's hurting me
Yes so precious

She said she never wanted to hurt me
And could I understand she's afraid and lost
She said a real woman wouldn't do this over the phone
And that you told her about me after the baby was born

Chorus

She said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be anymore us
Won't deny it's hurting me
Yes so precious

Hmm, oh I can't, looks just like you
How could you deny your own flesh and blood?
Your own child
What kind of man are you?
Oh and girlfriend

Chorus

She said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be anymore us
Won't deny it's hurting me
Yes so precious
