So your sweet mama says that we're living in sin
'Cause you never did take the vows like a proper lady
But that just can't be true, 'cause I'm in love with you
And you don't need a ring to be my baby
I couldn't love you any more if you had my name
I couldn't want to any more if you paid me
Oh girl, we're young and free, and you're in love with me
And you don't a ring a to be my baby
Strange how it all gets so confusing
People feel that love's embodied in a ring
While so many people who wear them
Are married and don't feel a thing
But your sweet mama says that we're living in sin
'Cause you never did take the vows like a proper lady
But papers that are signed are not the ties that really bind
And you don't need a ring to be my baby
No, papers that are signed are not the ties that truly bind
And you don't need a ring, a ring don't mean a thing
You don't need a ring to be my baby
(You don't need it, you don't need a ring)
To be my baby
(You don't need it, you don't need a ring)
To be my baby
(You don't need it, you don't need a ring)
To be my baby
(You don't need it, you don't need a ring)
To be my baby
(You don't need it, you don't need a ring)
To be my baby
(You don't need it, you don't need a ring)
To be my baby
