I read about this baby she got beat up by her
dad
She was nine months old and he was a full grown
man
She may have been learning how to crawl and he
put a fist in her face
And the doctor said this baby's gone she can't be
replaced
Now you read a lot of things in the daily
news
But I'm laying awake at nights wondering what to
do
I pray the Lord her soul to keep cause all down
here are fast asleep
But I want to say this baby belongs to me and
you
So we gotta wake up this baby belongs to me and
you
[ guitar ]
Everyday when I wake up in this world and it's
spinning out of control
Who's at the wheel seems no one knows
We're all just like a baby frightened and so
sad
Feeling beat up by someone who looks like dad
Now you read a lot of things...
So we gotta wake up this baby belongs to me and
you
