Around Town


You known around town for what you do best Trying to be like every other boy you see just trying to get up in that girls pants But when the baby comes you're in shock and can't even breathe Deadbeat daddy want to get up and leave Don't live to see that tree grow tall you see 'cuz all he known for is to make babies but when they cme he don't want o have nothing to do with them The tree is sprouting spreading its branches to take inthe fresh air but don't have a daddy to be there to help her when she needs him near Death for you is just another moment to show you don't care the tree tries to breathe but realizes there is no fresh air Death is near and soon she will be laying in the grae thinking about how daddy was never there Thinking why was ny dad even there when he didn't care only though of himself just so that he can get by knowing that her father just wanted to see her cry crying that night when she knew he would never come
