Oh, mama's stray baby
Mmm, mama's little child
Oh, so wild
Mmm, papa's little ___
Showed up one night at 2 a.m
Lord, he was mighty sweating
Little feet frozen in the snow
So cold that he was dying
And I loved him from the start
Poor little child
He was mama's stray baby
Daddy tried to get him in the car
But the little man only came so far
Showing all his teeth
He would only growl and cry
Because he didn't ___ nobody
No no, he didn't ___ nobody
Mmm, he would only run and hide
Wouldn't come near for half an hour
Tryin' to bite you daddy
Finally came inside
Ate everything in sight
Went to sleep right away
Slept through the night
Curled in a ball with a little marrow bone
Now you don't have to be alone
Mmm, mama's stray baby came home
Hey hey, papa's little child
Oh, mama's loved him from the start
He didn't know it
But he was mama's stray baby
Oh, he was papa's little child
Heehee, he was daddy's little child
Ain't got no collar on
Ain't got no home
Ain't got no one
Livin' off garbage cans and boxes now
Oh, and sleepin' in the cold
Watchin' out for the man
Said he gotta move on
Gotta move on
Baby gotta move on
Now, he's mama's stray baby
Yeah, mama's little junk yard dog
Mmm, he was papa's little child
Oh, he was papa's little baby
Mmm, he was mama's stray baby
Was a junk yard child
Oh, mama could have lost you
That junk yard baby
Mmm, he was a junk yard child
Mama's stray baby
He was mama's stray baby
Papa's little boy
Mmm, mama could have lost her baby
That junk yard baby
Oh, go to sleep now
Mama's little baby
You're a junk yard dog
Said, when he came home
Mama's gonna give him a warm home
Well, well, well
Hey hee, oh daddy named him ___ ___
Hmm hmm, yeah the baby
Sleep little baby
Junk yard dog
He was mama's stray baby
