ONE NIGHT STAND


It was just a one night stand thats what you said when you left my momma on red

sayin that im not yours cuz we don't share the same tone 

Oh, this is your blood runniung through these veins 

You were 18 years to gone 7 Years to late 

So don't start calling me up when you start seeing me on stage

making my dreams real; I didn't need you then and I don't need you now

I made it in my own this long somehow

I don't need you coming around 

thinkin you can get a chance to make up for the lost time  we never had

Cuz daddy Oh

You were 18 years to gone 7 years to late

Don't forget what you said that night 

It was just a one night stand 

Oh, it was just a one night stand

Are you happy now 

How I turned out

Im out here tryin to make my family proud

Acutally being there cuz I never had a doubt

You just left a mother alone with a new born baby

Growing up never having a clue

That behind closed doors 

your daughter was scared to come and tell the truth 

Being abused by a scum of a step father

I wounder what you wouldve done if you only knew

But thats done and over now cuz I stood up

and stood my ground got'em behind bars 

Yet im still wearing a frown  

Cuz I keep wondering 

what my life would 've been like if you were around

but you were 18 years to gone 7 years to late

So just remeber what you said that night 

It was just a one night stand

Oh, It was just a one night stand
