Once upon a time there was a happy family (a sweet little baby) There was a baby girl, a daddy, and a mommy( a sweet little baby) Mommy had a secret she told a little white lie And when she tucked the baby in at night, she sang her this lullaby You got your daddy's smile, you got his eyes I feel my heart breaking every time you cry I'm gonna burn in hell, but its no sacrifice Your stability is worth a million lies I see your daddy, in everything you do And if you could talk, I'll bet you'll talk like him too But he can't be your daddy, I hope you understand The man who thinks he's your father Is a much better man Maybe one day, you'll end up crying on Ricki Lake But baby its a chance your momma's willing to take 'Cause I love you! even if my heart is gonna break Ain't no reason you should suffer for my mistake And so I lie, baby I try, and it kills me inside But I'm gonna live with this until the day I die And I hurt, baby, oh how I hurt But I know what you're worth, yeah So I'm gonna live with this Until I hit the dirt, someday And everyday by herself the momma cried But at night she smiled when the daddy was by her side There were times she almost told him, and it really broke her heart But she forced herself to keep the secret that was tearing her apart Now I can't sleep at night I've lost my appetite Everybody keeps saying The baby looks kind of light And I tell them that every newborn baby looks the same While I'm praying to God, please make your color change The emotions on his face when he's looking at you I couldn't tell he ain't your papa even if I wanted to He's got your picture tattooed on his arm Now he's bragging to his friends about his firstborn Oh God, and I love him, really I do, if he ever found out it Would kill me too, now I'm caught between a rock and a really hard place I'd give anything to keep that smile on his face And so I lie, baby I try, and it kills me inside But I'm gonna live with this until the day I die And I hurt, baby, oh how I hurt But I know what you're worth, yeah So I'm gonna live with this Until I hit the dirt, someday Mommy kept the family together the best way she could 'Cause she knew in this case the truth would do more harm than good What the daddy didn't know, didn't hurt him He had no cause to fret, and that's as close to happily ever after as anyone can get I try, and it kills me inside But I'm gonna live with this until the day I die And I hurt, baby, oh how I hurt But I know what you're worth, yeah So I'm gonna live with this Until I hit the dirt, someday
