Barbara’s Boy

Pam Sawyer, Joe Hinton

[Chorus]
Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
If he's mine, I don't know
(How could any man ever really know?)
Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
But I love him so

[Verse 1]
I was so proud to be the father of the son
We wanted desperately
I wanted the whole wide world to see the son
Barbara gave to me

[Pre-Chorus]
I said, "His eyes, don't they just look like mine?"
And then I heard that rumour one more time
I couldn't ignore the spiteful tongues
That made me doubt, is he really my son?

[Chorus]
Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
If he's mine, I don't know
(How could any man ever really know?)
Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
But I love him so

[Verse 2]
I heard that she was dividing my time
With this other guy
I cannot believe that Barbara would cheat on me
She wasn't one to lie

[Pre-Chorus]
She said, "I love him, 'cause he's part of you"
How could she say it if it isn't true?
I end up feeling like the guilty one
When she says: "Darling, do you love your son?"

[Chorus]
Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
If he's mine, I don't know
(How could any man ever really know?)
Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
But I love him so

[Bridge]
(Since my good times were stopped
Blaming her, charging her
And then we'll see that I'm
Content to be loving her)

[Pre-Chorus]
I would never accuse that girl
I couldn't live if I should lose that girl
Let the gossips have their say
Wildly talk will never drive me away from

[Chorus]
Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
If he's mine, I don't know
(How could any man ever really know?)
Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
But I love him so

Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy
(How could any man ever really know?)
(Barbara's boy, he's Barbara's boy)
