Abstract
At twelve I was kicked out of school
Got pregnant because I was a fool
From home my parents threw me out
Better of dead than the shame, they did shout
Pre-maturely a baby girl was born
Soon after she died and inside I was torn
Work I did try so hard in getting
Got pregnant because I was a fool
From home my parents threw me out
Better of dead than the shame, they did shout
Pre-maturely a baby girl was born
Soon after she died and inside I was torn
Work I did try so hard in getting
