My Children

Woah, woah, well
Leave my children alone
Lord, have mercy
Well, woah, well

Someone told me that you're leaving town today
Taking my love and my two kids away
It tears me up, I won't live that way, no
You can take money, house and car
But don't ever take my kids too far
I'll go crazy, believe me when I say

(So if you want me)
But if you want me to beg on my knees gladly I'll say please
That's how low I'll go, because I love my children, yeah
Using them as a weapon to show how cold you could be
But that doesn't trouble me, because I love my children, yeah

Bitterness I feel when they're not around
Emptiness and loneliness is all I've found
It tears me up, I won't live this way, no
Take your clothes and your jewelry and go your ways
'Cause in my house is where my kids will stay

(So if you want me)
But if you want me to beg on my knees gladly I'll say please
That's how low I'll go, because I love my children, yeah
Using them as a weapon to show how cold you could be
That doesn't trouble me, because I love my children, yeah, yeah

I don't care what the judge may say
You're never gonna take them away
So if it means I'll end up in jail
Lock me up, lock me up right away
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, well
I love my little children, yeah
Don't take them away, no, no
I wouldn't live another day, no

Someone told me that you're leaving town today
Taking my love and my two kids away
It tears me up, I won't live that way, no, no
You can take money, house and car
But don't ever take my kids too far
I'll go crazy, believe me when I say

(So if you want me)
But if you want me to beg on my knees gladly I'll say please
That's how low I'll go, because I love my children, yeah, yeah
Using them as a weapon to show how cold you could be
But that doesn't trouble me, because I love my children, yeah, yeah

(So if you want me to beg on my knees gladly I'll say please)
