I can't find Mommy where she?" I don't know play Hailie, baby, your Daddy's busy Daddy's writing song, this song ain't gonna write itself I'll give one underdog then you gotta swing by yourself Then turn right around in that song and tell her you her And put hands on her mother, who's a spitting image of Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim Shady's crazy Shady made me, tonight Shady's rocka-by-baby...
