Generate meaning
1
(Didn't your Mama tell you how to behave, girl?
2
Didn't your Daddy tell you not to wear that little thing?)
3
Been told you never get something for nothing
4
My stepfather Dickie say I just might get hit
5
If I don't give
6
The girls all whisper 'hind my back
7
They try to break me with cruel attacks
8
The boys they want only one thing
9
And so I give it, don't complain
10
Daddy's gone, Mama lost her job
11
Our house ain't a home no more
12
Still my faith's unshaken in God
13
I feel so lonely for hope and company
14
I don't take much and I give everything for free
15
(So, don't you want me?)
16
The girls all whisper 'hind my back
17
My baby brother's smoking crack
18
The boys they want only one thing
19
And so I give it, don't complain
20
Daddy's gone, Mama lost her job
21
Our house ain't a home no more
22
Still my faith's unshaken in God
23
I dream I get a record deal
24
I'll buy a way out of here
25
Or maybe a new Lexus jeep
26
Or just a friend(Am I dreamin'? Am I dreamin'?)
27
There's Mr. Roberts, Juan and Paul
28
All waiting for me down the hall
29
But then tomorrow they don't call
30
Still a moment's better than none at all
31
Daddy's gone (My name is La Tonya)
32
Mama lost her job (I am a sophomore)
33
Our house ain't a home no more (I'll be sixteen in August)
34
Since Mama broke her soul (I like to sing in the chorus)
35
Daddy's gone (My name is La Tonya)
36
Mama lost her job (I am a sophomore)
37
Our house ain't a home no more (I'll be sixteen in August)
38
Still my faith's unshaken
39
Lord won't you please save me?
40
Is this the new slavery?
41
Here on the ghetto pavement?
42
But I believe in you, baby
43
Yes, my faith's unshaken
44
In God
