[Verse 1]
Whose child am I gonna be tonight?
Whose bed am I gonna sleep in tonight?
You told the other ones I was your brother's child
(Brother's child)
You told the other ones I was your sister's child
(Sister's child)
[Verse 2]
Every time they come into the house
I got to change my name
Every time they come into the house
I got to change my identity
[Verse 3]
Whose child am I gonna be tonight?
As he walked away with tears in his eyes
I felt every pain that he felt
I cried every tear that he cried
Mama, why?
[Verse 4]
(I wish you could love me the way I am)
(I wish you could love me the way I am)
(I wish you could love me the way I am)
(I wish you could love me the way I am)
[Verse 5]
Whose dogs are gonna be my friends tonight?
Whose bin am I gonna eat out of tonight?
The welfare people when they come to the house
You told me to say nothing
Every time they wanna take me away
You say everything is alright
[Verse 6]
Whose bin am I gonna eat out of tonight?
As he walked away with tears in his eyes
I felt every pain that he felt
I cried every tear that he cried
Mama, why?
[Verse 7]
(I wish you could love me the way I am)
(I wish you could love me the way I am)
(I wish you could love me the way I am)
(I wish you could love me the way I am)
(I wish you could love me, wish you could)
(I wish you could love me, wish you could)
Rasta, rasta
