I was only seventeen my luck ran out I didn't know to turn, I was so in doubt I had to find to hold, and I met my man I loved him but I hated him too, his so out of hand
I said, hey, can't you see what you're to me? I you my heart, but you can set me free Because I'm not in the mood to be to There's more to this than your drugs and your booze
He said, please cry Wipe those tears your eyes I survive I see you through
He me he'd change And one day, a baby came
For the past nine months or so, I ain't so sweet told me I had to behave myself, so I'd be healthy I thought I did everything right, now gone wrong Our baby's got a broken heart, he feeling so strong
My God, what did I do to deserve this you I don't think I've ever so confused I still feel the pain, after the bruise What should I do, tell me should I do
He said, mama, cry those tears from your eyes I will I see my life through
Please It was not in your You do the that you can And I know your love is
I'm not surprised that I so old Sometimes can be so cold I'll find the strength just to on Am I destined to pay for my every Will somebody me for how long?
