Out of Towners
Out-of-towners see the city once it's built
Walk for miles in order to feel these streets are real
And every mother's daughter deserves a life she'd kill
For it's coursing through her veins
She wants what's hers against her will
'Cause first thing Monday morning we all feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said, "I don't give a damn, she's gotta steal it"
Oh, she said, "I pray my girl is twice as man as me"
Oh, she said, "I pray my girl is twice as man as me"
Well, I came to a city mid-October
Still decades left of progress underway
She said, "don't you let the absence of a father"
Have my daughter go and make her mom's mistakes
'Cause first thing Monday morning we all feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said, "I don't give a damn, she's gotta steal it"
Oh, she said, "I pray my girl is twice as man as me"
Oh, she said, "I pray my girl is twice as man as me"
She said, "I don't mind, I can only try"
'Cause things will always pan out like they do
You came just in time to watch it all unwind
'Cause I can't stop my daughter's life from being just like mine
But I know first thing Monday morning she's gonna feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said, "I don't give a damn, she's gotta steal it"
Oh, I hope she prays her girl is twice as man as me
Oh, I hope she prays her girl is twice as man as me
Walk for miles in order to feel these streets are real
And every mother's daughter deserves a life she'd kill
For it's coursing through her veins
She wants what's hers against her will
'Cause first thing Monday morning we all feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said, "I don't give a damn, she's gotta steal it"
Oh, she said, "I pray my girl is twice as man as me"
Oh, she said, "I pray my girl is twice as man as me"
Well, I came to a city mid-October
Still decades left of progress underway
She said, "don't you let the absence of a father"
Have my daughter go and make her mom's mistakes
'Cause first thing Monday morning we all feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said, "I don't give a damn, she's gotta steal it"
Oh, she said, "I pray my girl is twice as man as me"
Oh, she said, "I pray my girl is twice as man as me"
She said, "I don't mind, I can only try"
'Cause things will always pan out like they do
You came just in time to watch it all unwind
'Cause I can't stop my daughter's life from being just like mine
But I know first thing Monday morning she's gonna feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said, "I don't give a damn, she's gotta steal it"
Oh, I hope she prays her girl is twice as man as me
Oh, I hope she prays her girl is twice as man as me
