I read about this baby she got beat up by her dad She was nine months old and he was a full grown man She may have been learning how to crawl and he put a fist in her face And the doctor said this baby's gone she can't be replaced Now you read a lot of things in the daily news But I'm laying awake at nights wondering what to do I pray the Lord her soul to keep cause all down here are fast asleep But I want to say this baby belongs to me and you So we gotta wake up this baby belongs to me and you [ guitar ] Everyday when I wake up in this world and it's spinning out of control Who's at the wheel seems no one knows We're all just like a baby frightened and so sad Feeling beat up by someone who looks like dad Now you read a lot of things... So we gotta wake up this baby belongs to me and you
