about

Someone once told me that you can get off driving offences if you claim that you have Baby Brain. I don't know if that's true but Baby Brain certainly is. I'm still waiting for mine to abate.

lyrics

Vs1
Don’t try telling me that this here thing ain’t true
Don’t try shuttin’ me down cause honey I’m tellin’ you
That everytime I feed this child I swear I forget your name
Oh you may be my husband but darlin’ I got baby brain
Vs 2
I went a pickin’ apples but found I’sa pickin pears
Then I used my toothbrush to wash behind my ears
I milked the bull instead of the cow with very little gain
I tell ya it’s a real condition. This mama’s got a baby brain
Ch
I went to see my Dr, he said what ails you so
I wish that I could tell ya Doc but hell I just don’t know
So I tried to tell my story, I went onto explain but then
Forgot what I was there for her said “Hmm, girl. You got a baby brain”.

Vs3
Although I’m slightly crazy and some days are pretty rough
There is one advantage to baby brain and being up the duff
I got pulled up by a policeman for speeding in a slow lane.
I said, “Officer I’m sorry, but this Mama’s got a baby brain”
(and he said Maam that’s a real condition)
Ch (and it’s a real condition)
