(lari white/chuck cannon) See that boy walking down the street Thinks he's tough but he smiles so sweet Snakeskin boots and a baseball cap Bet you'd like to meet a boy like that He's a little crazy he's a little loud He loves to do what ain't allowed And he might talk too slow and drive too fast But he'd do any little thing i ask cause That's my baby That's my baby That's my diamond in the rough But i can make him shine with my sweet love That's my baby He's a rebel wild and free My mama says he ain't right for me Daddy prays he's just a phase i'm going through But one of these days their gonna love him too 'cause That's my baby That's my baby That's my diamond in the rough But i can make him shine with my sweet love That's my baby He ain't no angel he ain't no saint But i don't worry 'bout what he ain't 'cause what he is, is something fine And he lets me know that he's mine all mine That's my baby That's my baby That's my diamond in the rough But i can make him shine with my sweet love That's my baby
