We've been friends for oh, so long
I let you share what's mine
But when you mess with the boy I love

It's time to draw the line

[Chorus]

Keep your hands off my bay-ee-a-by
I ain't gonna tell you but-a one more time
Oh, keep your hands off my bay-ee-a-by

Girl, you get it through your head
That boy is mine


I don't mind when you lend my clothes
My jewelry and such
But, honey, let's get something straight

There's one thing you don't touch

Keep your hands off my baby

Girl, you get it through your head
That boy is mine


[Repeat Chorus]

Oh, keep your hands off my baby

I ain't gonna tell you twice

He's mine

Yay, yay, yeah, he's mine

You better watch yourself, now
