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 am a woman
              
But before I met you
              
I was only a kid


                     
You know there were momments
                             
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


          
(Oooh ahh ahh)
                    
(Ahhh ah ah, ah ah aaaaah)

(x2)


             
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?
                  
we almost had a baby
