[Verse 1]
[Am]When [Gsus4]my best f[G]riend [Am]said
She had [Gsus4]lost her man
To her [G]babysit[Am]ter
I thought she [Gsus4]was lying
I said no six[Am]teen year
old school[Gsus4]girl
Could ever [Am]take a man of [Gsus4]mine

[Verse 2]
[Gsus4]Staying h[Am]ome with o[Gsus4]ur baby all the time
It kept me [Am]kind of broken [Gsus4]hearted
So I went and [Am]hired myself [Gsus4]a babysitter
And that's [Am]when my trouble
[C]all star[Gsus4]ted[F]
[Dm]This

[Verse 3]
sixteen year old [Am]chick walked in
With [Dm]a skirt up to her [Am]waist
She had a [Dm]truckload of you [Am]know what
And [C]all [G]of [C]it [G]in place

[Verse 4]
I should have [Am]been aware
Mmm hm[Gsus4]m, ooh, ooh, of the babysitter,[Am]
[Gsus4]oh, yeah, yeah

[Gsus4]yeah
She was a [G]man [Am]getter[Gsus4]

what was [G]go [Am]ing on
There [Dm]wasn't much that I could [Am]do
The [Dm]babysitter had his [G]heart [Am]and soul
And all [G]of his [C]money [Gsus4]too[G]
