Teena Marie - The Ballad Of Cradle Rob And Me Lyrics
Saw Cradle playin' in the schoolyard one dayPretty young boy-I takes him home to playSoon we was hangin'-Venice alleywayRobbin' the cradle-No-Cradle Rob and meRob and me lived on the same blockHe's kinny gardenI in knee socksHe goin' play doctor over by the docksRobbin' the cradle-No-Cradle Rob and meCradle's still fresh in junior highRob ain't so fresh at fourteenMe, I was just the last wordOoo have you heard the heresayI was robbin' the cradleNo, it wasn't that wayI 'member one day back in seventy-fourWhen Cradle's mamma said it wasn't cute no moreI was three years too old for them to ignoreShe said I was robbin' the cradleBut it was Cradle Rob and meWe hung around about a year after that'Til Rob found another girl to put his hair in plaitsAnd I said, "Girl, don't you worry meAnd we'll have none of that"Robbin' the cradle-no-Cradle Rob and meCrae's semi fresh in college nowRob ain't so fresh at nineteenMe, well I'm still the last wordOoo have your heard the heresayI was robbin' the cradle-no-it wasn't that wayRobbin' the cradle
