A young couple marries, already fighting Along comes baby makin' them three Trouble's all he hears from the time he's in didies Baby don't know just what to believe
Angry words and spiteful actions Baby's gonna cut his teeth on these If that's gonna be the main attraction What will the baby be, what will baby be
Baby needs love and needs direction Baby's first school is the family For they are only a reflection Of the things they see, what will baby be
What will baby be after baby is grown What will baby do if baby don't know what's right or wrong Got to show them love, got to teach them truth 'Cause what baby is when baby grows up Well, that depends entirely on me and you Depends entirely on me and you
Baby thinks God is just a curse word Never said a prayer 'cause he's never been taught They remember and repeat what they've heard So I ask who's really at fault
So many questions, so few answers So many lessons we don't teach Stumbling through like clumsy dancers What will baby be, what will baby be
What will baby be after baby is grown What will baby do when baby is out there on his own Teach the children how to be all they should be 'Cause what baby is when baby grows up Depends entirely on you and me Depends entirely on you and me What will baby be
