She spent ev’ry night just raisin’ Caine,
Johnny, Bill and Joe, they all meant the same,
Tried to hide that deep inside her,
lay a woman, soft and tender,
needin’ someone to defend her,
She was just a great pretender raisin’ Caine.
Didn’t take long to make up my mind,
I just had to have that somethin’ fine,
So I got set to make her forget
all the boys that she knew before,
Give her reason to love me for,
Love her till she had no need for raisin’ Caine.
I made her know my love will always be
And in a while she wanted only me
to give her lovin’ yeah, yeah, yeah.
I’ve been wed three years to that girl I won,
And I’m proud to say we have ourselves a son,
For a name called him ‘Caine’
It didn’t take long to discover
he had fire just like his mother,
but that’s O.K.
’cause we’ve each other, raisin’ Caine.
