Call yourself a family man

Talking 'bout the families plan

To bring the sweet talk deep and down

Works better than an average pick up line

You put your woman out to pasture

On the promises you gave her last year

Peace and love is on your head

And the grass is greener playing 'round

Your family seed is what you spread

Chorus:

Buddy my friend

Who you think you fooling

Buddy my friend

And what about your woman

Buddy my friend

Who you think you fooling

Buddy my friend



I don't care what you do

But there's a hypocrite that lives in you

Cause if your woman gave her love

In the same way that you do

You'd feel a-way

You know you would



Chorus



Buddy my friend

Treat her that way

And you'll be x-d soon

Buddy x-d soon
