"Future Baby Mama" is fine, but it's not too mind-blowing by any standards, let alone Prince's. "Cry Baby" is a pretty nice performance by Sheila. It has some of her best vocal work, she doesn't overshoot it or get too theatrical on it. It's a bright spot on that album.
Wildgoldenhoney, I can at least help you out with the lyrics... Cry Baby [Hello? Hi. I just want to talk to you. Please.] Baby, what happened to you and me? It wasn't supposed to be this way I said, baby, baby, baby What happened to you and I and all the promises we made I don't know why you left me I don't know why you said goodbye I only know that since you left me I feel so all alone, baby All I do is cry, baby We meant so much to each other We said we'd love one another And all I do is cry, baby We meant so much to each other We said we'd last forever Did I fight you? No Please don't go away Hold me tight Tell me you'll stay Tell me why you're blushing, baby Tell me why your body shakes Thinking of the love we make Close your eyes and listen To the pounding of my heart I feel a fire burning You drive me crazy, baby And all I do is cry We meant so much to each other We said we'd love one another And all I do is cry, baby We loved so good together We said we'd last forever All I do is cry We meant so much to each other We said we'd love one another All I do is cry Baby, please don't go Touch me, hold me Touch me, squeeze me, love me I need you now to wrap your arms around me Baby, don't you ever go Don't know why you left me Don't know why you said goodbye I only know that since you left me I feel so all alone All I do is cry, baby We meant so much to each other We said we'd love one another We worked so good together We said we'd last forever All I do is cry, baby | |

One other quick thing...
One of my favorite Prince ballads is "When 2 R in Love." I've always loved the part at the end where Sheila says, "Don't go." It seems sweet and genuine. The opening portion of "Cry Baby" where she's seemingly talking to her lost lover on the phone has a similar vibe to it and connects those two songs in a nice way for me. | |

I've never heard Sheila's song, but interesting the lyrics in Cry Baby are about a love lost where Future Baby Mama's lyrics are about a love found.
