But people always told him be careful of what you do
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
And his mother always told him be careful of who you love
Be careful of what you do because a lie becomes the truth

But the kid was not his son
She claimed he was the one, but the kid was not his son

For 40 days and for 40 nights
The law was on her side

She told his baby they'd dance 'til three, and then she looked at him
And showed a photo of a baby cryin' his eyes were like his
Go on dance on the floor in the round, baby
Now people always told him be careful of what you do
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
But she came and stood right by him
And the smell of sweet perfume
It happened way too soon
When she called him to her room, oh-oh
Billie Jean is not his lover
Just a girl who claims that he was the one
But the kid was not his son
She's claimed he was the one
But the kid was not his son
