She Ain't a Child No More

She used to run when you raised your hand

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

She was too young then to understand

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

Came home drunk in the middle of the night

Screamin' and swingin' with all of your might

But a child couldn't put up a fight

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

Poor little girl, she had to grow up quick

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

Her heart's still soft, but her skin got thick

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

How could a mother be so reckless and wild?

Put your kid through such torture and trial?

You could only have the love of your child

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

Boom-boom, boom-boom

Boom-boom, boom-boom

(She ain't a child no more)

(She ain't a child no more)

You could only have the love of your child

She ain't a child no more, yeah (She ain't a child no more)

Now listen, used to think she'd done something wrong

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

Now her body and her mind has grown strong

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

I bet you never thought she'd grow up so tall

Stand eye to eye, toe to toe with her ma

You know you never thought she'd toe the law

She ain't a child no more (She ain't a child no more)

She ain't a child no more, no-no-no (No-no-no, she ain't a child)

She ain't a child, she's all grown up (No-no-no, she ain't a child)

No-no-no, she ain't a child no more (No-no-no, she ain't a child)

Takin' no mess, no, no more (No-no-no, she ain't a child)

She's puttin' the fight down, oh yeah (No-no-no, she ain't a child)

She ain't a child no more, no more cryin' (No-no-no)
