She Got Kids Lyrics - Lyfe 268-192 - Lyfe Jennings

I know a lot of women gonna hate it 

But, somebody's gotta say it 

And so I nominated myself to deliver the news 

That its hard for a man to choose a lady 

That already got a baby 

Although his feelings may be strong 

Having kids that don't belong to him 

Holding on to him somehow seems wrong to him 

Exposing them to a man who may one day decide 

He's tired of the family life 

And now he's gotta tell that little girl a goodbye lie 

When he's the only Dad she's ever had in her life 

I don't want to take that chance please don't take offense 

It's just the thought of hurting somebody that was innocent 

She got kids 

And I don't know if I'm ready to give 

Them the things that they need to live 

'Cause if we become more than just friends what I do for her I gotta do for them kids 

She got kids 

And I just want to make sure this is 

More than just some sexual trip 

See all I want to do is prevent those kids from getting hurt again 

Most men think it but they'll never say it 

But what if ya'll had another baby 

And he's accused of choosing favorites, and they're right 

Would he be wrong for loving his own flesh and blood a little more 

Is he being human or only being immature 

Who's to say 

That's why it's better just to wait 

Take love day to day 

And let love spread its own wings 

And if it wants to fly away or if it decides to stay 

It won't be because of any unrealistic expectations ya'll done made 

And he won't have to pray that little girl ain't awake 

When he tiptoe out the door so he won't have to explain 

I don't want to take that chance please don't take offense 

I just don't need that kinda drama on my conscience 

Ohhh ooooo 

She got kids 

And I don't know if I'm ready to give 

Them the things that they need to live 

'Cause if we become more than just friends what I do for her I gotta do for them kids 

She got kids 

And I just want to make sure this is 

More than just some sexual trip 

See all I want to do is prevent those kids from getting hurt again
