Verse:
              Am   F          G  Em
She works the night, by the water
             Am             F
Sheʼs gone astray, so far away
                    G    Em
From her fatherʼs daughter
                Am  F       G   Em
She just wants a life for her baby
           Am                F
All on her own, no one will come
             G               Em
Sheʼs got to save him (daily struggle)

Pre-Chorus:
               Am         F                        G
She tells him "ooh, love, no oneʼs ever gonna hurt you, love
 Em                        Am
Iʼm gonna give you all of my love
 F                   G  Em
Nobody matters like you"
               Am        F                           G
She tells him "your life ainʼt gonna be nothing like my life
 Em                           Am
Youʼre gonna grow and have a good life
 F                      G      Em
Iʼm gonna do what Iʼve got to do"

Chorus:
    Am       F           G

 Am              F
 Single mama you doing out there
 G                     Em
 Facing the hard life, without no fear

 Just so you know that you really care
      G                 Em
 Cause any obstacle come you’re well prepared
 Am               F
 And no mama, you never shed tear

 Cause you have to set things year and to year
    Am                      F
 And you give the youth love beyond compare
 G                       Em
 You find his school fee and the bus fare
 Am             F

          G
 Trying to keep him warm

 Trying to keep out the cold

 He donʼt know heʼs safe
