Lyrics for Watch Dog

My man is a watch dog My man is a watch dog, yeah I don't want no watch dog, I want a man, uh-huh I don't want no watch dog, I want a man right now I don't want no man of mine Everywhere I go, now, he's a-right behind I don't want no watch dog, I want a man Every time I visit my girlfriend's house He sends his baby brother to check me out I go outside to sweep in my front yard He stands over me like a prison guard I've never seen a man sneaking and a-hiding When he should be out working and providing He's a watch dog Yeah, he's a watch dog
