The Single Mother Blues

Oh lord, I've ruined my life.
Two kids, and I ain't no wife. I'm only
seventeen, but I might as well retire. I've got the
single mother blues.

No heart, yeah I lost my soul at school. I should be
in love, but I feel like a fool. I'm feeling
washed out, when I should be looking up. I've got the
single mother blues.

(guitar wailing like a screaming child)

Too cruel, I'm feeling so upset. I've lost my
true love, and I'm full of regret.
No life, just responsibilites. I've got the
single mother blues.
