She locked her fingers and bowed her head
|
She said, "I'm late and I'm really scared"
|
Now you can go but I hope you stay
|
I'm gonna keep it either way
|
|
In my daddy's El Camino
|
In her driveway in the rain
|
Starin' through that windshield
|
I could see my future change
|
|
And my heart hit like a hammer
|
And my thoughts were runnin' wild
|
Any fool can make a baby
|
But it takes a man to raise a child
|
|
I laid my head down on the wheel
|
She said, "I know, I know it don't seem real"
|
She closed her eyes but the tears flowed through
|
She said, "Don't hate me for lovin' you"
|
|
In my daddy's El Camino
|
In her driveway in the rain
|
Starin' through that windshield
|
I could see my future change
|
|
And my heart hit like a hammer
|
And my thoughts were runnin' wild
|
Any fool can make a baby
|
But it takes a man to raise a child
|
|
Oh, I could not reassure her
|
I couldn't say what I had planed
|
Couldn't put three words together
|
So I just took her hand
|
|
In my daddy's El Camino
|
In her driveway in the rain
|
Starin' through that windshield
|
I could see my future change
|
|
And my heart hit like a hammer
|
And my thoughts were runnin' wild
|
Any fool can make a baby
|
But it takes a man to raise a child
|
