La Tonya |
| Didn’t your mama tell you how to behave, girl? |
| Didn’t your daddy tell you not to wear that little thing? |
| Been told you never get something for nothing |
| My stepfather Dickie say I just might get hit if I don’t give |
| The girls all whisper 'hind my back |
| They try to break me with cruel attacks |
| The boys they want only one thing |
| And so I give it, don’t complain |
| Daddy’s gone, mama lost her job |
| Our house ain’t a home no more |
| Still my faith’s unshaken in God |
| I feel so lonely for hope and company |
| I don’t take much and I give everything for free |
| (So, don’t you want me?) |
| The girls all whisper 'hind by back |
| My baby brother’s smoking crack |
| The boys they want only one thing |
| My body is my |
| Daddy’s gone, mama lost her job |
| Our house ain’t a home no more |
| Still my faith’s unshaken in God |
| I dream I get a record deal |
| I’ll buy a way out of here |
| Or maybe a new Lexus jeep |
| Or just a friend, am I dreamin'? |
| Am I dreamin'? |
| There’s Mr. Roberts, Juan and Paul |
| All waiting for me down the hall |
| But then tomorrow they don’t call |
| Still the moment’s better than none at all |
| Daddy’s gone |
| (My name is La Tonya) |
| Mama lost her job |
| (I'll be sixteen in August) |
| Our house ain’t a home no more |
| (I am a sophomore) |
| Since mama broke her soul |
| (I like to sing in chorus) |
| Daddy’s gone |
| (My name is La Tonya) |
| Mama lost her job |
| (I'll be sixteen in August) |
| Our house ain’t a home no more |
| (I am a sophomore) |
| Still my faith’s unshaken |
| Lord won’t you please save me? |
| Is this the new slavery? |
| Here on the ghetto pavement? |
| But I believe in you baby |
| Yes, my faith’s unshaken in God |
