The Love Between Me And My Kids

Answer the phone, it's only me

All I wanna do is talk to my children, oh, yeah, yeah

Don't want to bother her or you, my man, no, no

But if you have a man at all, you'll understand

Ooh, the problems between her and me

They are foolish things that we did, oh

Haven't got a thing to do with the love

No, no, no

Haven't got a thing to do with the love

Between me and my kids

Even the judge, he understood now

Gave me the right to see 'em, at least on the weekend

Oh, now, buddy, you got the woman now

She chose to let me go, ah...

But if you love my kids at all, you got to know

Oh, but there's an ocean between her and me

Made of tears we often hid, ooh...

That ain't got a thing to do with the love

No, no, no, now

That ain't got a thing to do with the love

Between me and my kids

As long as I respect your home

And don't come around

Trying to cause you pain and misery, ooh...

I got the right to be with them

Oh, they got the right to be with me

I'm talkin' 'bout the kids, man

They got the right to be with me, oh...

I, I, I, I don't use my kids

For no excuse to spy on you, no

Prying into your private life

Is something I won't do, oh...

But when the woman and I broke up

Of each other we got rid, oh...

But that ain't got a thing to do with the love

No, no, no, now

That ain't got a thing to do with the love...

That ain't got a thing to do with the love

Between me and my kids
