Ms. Jackson - OutKast

Yeah, this one right here goes out

To all the baby's mamas' mamas

Mamas, mamas, baby mamas' mamas

Yeah, go like this

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

My baby's drama mama don't like me

She be doin' things like havin' them boys

Come from her neighborhood to the studio, tryna fight me

She needs to get a piece of the American pie and take her bite out

That's my house, I'll disconnect the cable and turn the lights out

And let her know her grandchild is a baby and not a pay check

Private school, daycare, shit, medical bills—I pay that

I love your mom and everything

But see, I ain't the only one who laid down

She wanna rib you up to start a custody war

My lawyers stay down

She never got a chance to hear my side of the story

We was divided

She had fish fries, cookouts for my child's birthday, I ain't invited

Despite it I show her the utmost respect when I fall through

All you, do is defend that lady when I call you, yeah

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

Me and your daughter got a special thang goin' on

You say it's puppy love;

we say it's full-grown (Arroof)

Hope that we feel this, feel this way forever

You can plan a pretty picnic but you can't predict the weather

Ms. Jackson

Ten times out of nine, now if I'm lyin', find

The quickest muzzle, throw it on my mouth and I'll decline

King meets queen, then the puppy love thing

Together dream 'bout that crib with the Goodyear swing

On the oak tree, I hope we feel like this forever

Forever, forever ever?

Forever, ever?

Forever never seems that long until you're grown

And notice that the day-by-day ruler can't be too wrong

Ms. Jackson, my intentions were good, I wish I could

Become a magician to abracadabra all the sadder

Thoughts of me, thoughts of she, thoughts of he

Asking what happened to the feeling that her and me had

I pray so much about it, need some knee pads

It happened for a reason, one can't be mad

So know this, know that everything's cool

And yes, I will be present on the first day of school and graduation

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

"Look at the way he treats me"

Shit, look at the way you treat me

You see, your little nosy-ass homegirls

Done got your ass sent up the creek, G

Without a paddle, you left to straddle and ride this thing on out

Now you and your girl ain't speakin' no more

'Cause my dick all in her mouth

Know what I'm talkin' about?

Jealousy, infidelity, envy, cheating, beating

In the year 2G, they be the same thing

So who you placin' the blame on?

You keep on singin' the same song;

let bygones be bygones

And you can go on and get the hell on, you and your mama

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times

I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson, ooh, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times
