She's Alive

A boy to raise

At a young age

No help from him

But she's alive

To be made strong

But all alone

Must be a pain

But she's alive

The year was 1975

That night crickets cried

They knew what was going down

Three girls travel a long country road

And one said, "She thinks it's timeThis baby wants to come right now"

A boy to raise

At a young age

No help from him

But she's alive

To be made strong

But all alone

Must be a pain

But she's alive{

I was scufflin' going to school

I was scufflin' and working at night

And you know what,

I truly believe

And that's why

I tell a lot of parents

Single parents, don't tell me what

God can't do

I made sure you had

I never felt like you should be deprived of anything

If a man didn't want to take care of his child

You move on and that's what

I did, I moved on}

A boy to raise

At a young age

No help from him

But she's alive

To be made strong

But all alone

Must be a pain

But she's alive

A boy to raise

At, at a young age

No help from him

But she's alive{

He always wanted to be a father

But he never took care of you

He have no money

He have nothin'

How can you care about somebody

And you never give the welfare of them}

A boy to raise

At a young age

No help from him

But she's alive

To be made strong

But all alone

Must be a drag

But she's alive

A boy to raise

At a young age

No help from him

But she's alive

To be made strong

But all alone

Must{And I knew

I had to go that road by myself}

She's alive
