She Got Kids

Lyrics

[Intro] Mmm, yeah I mean, I know you taught my brother So let me tell her [Verse 1] I know a lot of women gonna hate it But, somebody's gotta say it And so I nominated myself to deliver the news That it's hard for a man to choose a lady That already got a baby, mm-hmm Although his feelin's may be strong Havin' kids that don't belong to him Holdin' on to him somehow seems wrong to him Exposin' them to a man who may one day decide He's tired of a family life Now he's gotta tell that little girl a goodbye lie When he's the only dad she's ever had in her life And I don't wanna take that chance, please don't take offense It's just the thought of hurtin' somebody that was innocent [Chorus] She got kids Don't know if I'm ready to give Them the things that they need to live 'Cause if we become more than just friends, what I do for her, I gotta do for them kids She got kids And I just wanna make sure this is More than just a sexual trip All I wanna do is prevent those kids from gettin' hurt again, yeah [Verse 2] Now most men think it, but they'll never say it But what if y'all had another baby And he's accused of choosin' favorites, and they're right Would he be wrong for lovin' his own flesh and blood a little more? Is he bein' human or only bein' immature? Who's to say That's why it's better just to wait Take love day to day And let love spread its own wings And if it wants to fly away or if it decides to stay It won't be because of any unrealistic expectations y'all done made And he won't have to pray that little girl ain't awake When he tiptoe out the door so he won't have to explain I don't wanna take that chance, please don't take offense Just don't need that kinda drama on my conscience, ohh, ooh [Chorus] She got kids Don't know if I'm ready to give Them the things that they need to live 'Cause if we become more than just friends, what I do for her, I gotta do for them kids She got kids And I just wanna make sure this is More than just a sexual trip All I wanna do is prevent those kids from gettin' hurt again [Outro] But then Even knowin' that she got kids after all the— You know, bein' concerned and all the worryin' I just realized that, you know I had-I had feelin's for her And I just can't see her bein' with somebody else I just can't
