She was just a teenager living in a grown woman's world
Traded in her school books, had herself a little baby girl
Did it all with no father left there to care on her own
Got caught up in the street life, damn near lost her soul
Oh, baby girl, this is for you
Oh, baby girl, this love is for you
Oh, baby girl, this is for you
Don't ever give up things are getting better, yeah
Grew up in the broken home, got tired of being all alone
Caught up in the strip club just to have somewhere to go
And money started coming in, managed to get herself a home
Now she's back in school and she's moving right along
Oh, baby girl, this is for you
Oh, baby girl, this love is for you
Oh, baby girl, this is for you
Don't ever give up things are getting better, yeah
This love is for you (for you)
Oh, baby girl, this love is for you (for you)
Oh, baby girl, this love is for you (this for you)
Don't ever give up, things are getting better now
Oh, baby girl (for you)
Right when you thought it was all going wrong
It started turning 'round
Now it's back where it needs to be (for you)
Food on the table (this is for you) and a job over your head
Oh, baby girl you looking good now, oh
Baby girl, this love is for you
