Part time papa, don't mean nobody no good (2x)
Wouldn't treat you right even if he could

Cheat you in the kitchen, cheat you in the hall
If he couldn't cheat you baby he wouldn't want you at all
He's a part time papa, don't mean nobody no good
Wouldn't treat you right even if he could

See him on the corner, dressed up mighty fine
He's not thinkin' of you baby, he's just countin' off your time
He's a part time papa, don't mean nobody no good
Wouldn't treat you right even if he could

- guitar solo -

Part time papa, don't mean nobody no good
Part time papa, don't mean nobody no good
Wouldn't treat you right even if he could

He don't want no one woman, not even three or four
Cause he's got a million women and he wants a million more
He's a part time papa, don't mean nobody no good
Wouldn't treat you right even if he could

He'll work you in the summer, he'll work you when it's cold
And if the chance come baby he will make you sell your soul
He's a part time papa, don't mean nobody no good
Wouldn't treat you right even if he could

- piano solo -

All you part time papas you better change your way
All you part time papas you better change your way
If you don't change papa you can't last us your d
