Child With Child

(album: House On Old Lonesome Road - 1989)

She was still just a baby in her mama's eyes.
Daddy's little girl only yesterdaym my how time flies.
She learned all about romance from watching TV
And in one night alone with the boy down the street.

Child With Child. Mother to be.
Carrying a secret she know she can't keep.
Child With Child. Lying awake.
Thinking about all the hearts she will break.

Will her friends all whisper when she passes by?
Will there be shame or love in her daddy's eyes?
She can run from her hometown but she can't run away
From the new life inside her growing each day.

Child With Child. Mother to be.
Carrying a secret she knows she can't keep.
Child With Child. Lying awake.
Thinking about all the hearts she will break.

She's just a Child With Child...
