We Almost Had a Baby

Well you didn't stop when I told you to stop

And there was a month when I wasn't sure

If the next time I saw you out on the road

I'd have something to say, other than "Pay

All of the money that you owe"

And I would have liked to

To have something above you

To have something to hold

And know I could choose to let it grow

And I would have called you

And I'd have said "Hey

You know I'm in control

And I'll let you know

If you have to come and choose a name"

Well I am a woman

Well you know I'm a woman

But before I met you, I was only a kid

You know there were moments

When you thought you would break me

But you wanted to take me

So you did

And I will think of you

Now that we are apart

I put my hand across my gut

I plan to feed it with a heart

I'm not the girl that you remember from the start

I was only a baby

Now I am what you made me

And once you left me in the spring

And twice you left in fall

And once I tried to make a life

To keep myself in yours

Do you think of me when you are playing

The one and five in four?

Is country music what your life is for?
