Was Mamma there
When you went sleeping around
Was Mamma there
When your virginity was no longer found
Was your Mamma there
When you got your thrills
Was your Mamma there
When you forgot those pills
Grow Up My Dear...Grow Up!
YOU made the choice
To lay in that bed
Oh I love you baby
That's probably what you said
What ever you want
That's what I'll do
I just want you to know
How much I really love you
Grow Up My Dear...Grow Up!
That child didn't ask
To come into this world
Now it's YOUR responsibility
So what...you're a 12 year old girl
Grow Up My Dear...Grow Up!
If your man has a house
Then HE can take care of you
Let him buy some milk and pampers
And baby bottles too
Grow Up My Dear...Grow Up!
Life can be tough
And sometimes it may seem hard
But all you have to do
Is cast your cares on God
He's willing and He's waiting
To supply your every need
If only you will listen
To His Words and then just heed
Sure your Mamma loves you
She'll do for you all that she can
But girl this child belongs to YOU
So come on now, take a stand
Stand on the Word of God
He'll give you the strength you need
Call upon His Holy name
He'll protect you and your seed
When you need some help
Sure your mom will be there
Her arms will be wide open
To show you that she cares
Grow Up My Dear...Grow Up
It's time to be for real
Forget about YOUR pleasures
Forget about how you feel
That little baby needs you
More than you'll ever know
For no one else can take your place
To help this baby grown
Grow Up My Dear...Grow Up!
