Brenda's Got a Baby [Original Album Version]
(Brenda's got a baby)(Brenda's got a baby)I hear Brenda's got a babyBut Brenda's barely got a brainA damn shameThe girl can hardly spell her name(That's not our problem; that's up to Brenda's family)Well, let me show you how it affects our whole communityNow Brenda really never knew her moms and her dad was a junkieWent in debt to his arms; it's sad'Cause I bet Brenda doesn't even knowJust cause your in the ghetto doesn't mean you can't growBut, oh, that's a thought, my own revelationDo whatever it takes to resist the temptationBrenda got herself a boyfriendHer boyfriend was her cousin, now a spot to joy inShe tried to hide her pregnancy from her familyWho didn't really care to see, or give a damn if sheWent out and had a church of kidsAs long as when the check came they got first dibsNow Brenda's belly's gettin' biggerSongtexteBut no one seems to notice any change in her figureShe's twelve years old and she's having a babyIn love with a molester who's sexin' her crazyAnd yet and all she thinks that he'll be with her foreverAnd dreams of a world with the two of them are together, whateverHe left her, and she had the baby solo; she had it on the bathroom floorAnd didn't know so; she didn't know what to throw away and what to keepShe wrapped the baby up and threw him in a trash heapI guess she thought she'd get awayWouldn't hear the criesShe didn't realizeHow much the little baby had her eyesNow the baby's in the trash heap ballingMomma can't help her, but it hurts to hear her callingBrenda wants to run awayMama say, "You makin' me lose pay."The social worker's here everydayNow Brenda's got to make her own wayCan't go to her family: they won't let her stayNo money, no babysitter; she couldn't keep a jobShe tried to sell crack but end up gettin' robbedSo, now, what's next?It ain't nothin' left to sellSo she sees sex as a way of leavin' hellIt's payin' the rent, so she really can't complainProstitute found slain, and Brenda's her nameShe's got a baby(Baby)(I want you to know she's gotta...I want you to know she's gotta...I want you to know she's gotta baby)(I want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gotta baby)(I want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gotta baby)(I want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gotta baby)(I want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gotta baby)(I want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gottaI want you to know she's gotta baby)
