[Verse 1]
She wanted the money
The fame
The brand names
The fancy cars
She left her heart broken for a man behind
For a fellow with a championship ring
See here's the thing
About dating a superstar
She was one of like eight or nine
Just another ball player's play thing
And I'm singing

[Chorus]
Oh, and I'm singing what's the matter with ya baby
What's the matter with ya baby?
What's the matter with you?
Oh, you
Said ain't that your dream come true?
What's the matter with ya baby?
What's the matter with ya baby?
What's the matter with you?
No one to blame but (you)
No one to blame but you, you, you

[Verse 2]
He wanted the money, fame, brand names, fancy cars
Lookin' up to the pusher man, he wanted to be like him
Ooh so bad (ooh, oh so bad)
Well, one hell of a price to pay if you get caught
(Uh) See that's the part he didn't understand
Now he's sittin' in a prison cell all mad
