They've been married for seventeen years
But you can see she don't trust him at all
And you can see she don't believe he's not cheating
You can't blame a poor girl
He's been a busy man all his life, just like the rest of us

Then one day she caught him with another girl, he said, 'It was his mother'
She caught with another one, he said, 'It was his sister'
He's in deep water again, I don't know what he gonna say today
But I won't be surprise if he gets out of this one like the other ones
'Cause I know he's the Houdini of cheaters, hear him now when he says

Cool down baby, everything is under control
It doesn't matter where I get my appetite
I will always eat at home
Cool down baby, everything is under control
It doesn't matter where I get my appetite
I will always eat at home, oh, oh, yeah, baby

They've been married for seventeen years
But you can see he don't trust her at all
And you can see he don't believe she's not cheating
You can't blame a poor man
She's been a busy girl all her life just like the rest of us

One day he caught her with another man, she said, 'It was her father'
He caught her with another one, she said, 'It was her brother'
I believe that it is true birds of a feather fly together
She has learned from master wasn't surprised at all
When I heard her say, hey

Cool down baby, everything is under control
It doesn't matter where I get my appetite
I will always eat at home
Cool down baby, everything is under control
It doesn't matter where I get my appetite
I will always eat at home
Cool down baby, everything is under control
