Barefoot And Pregnant - Joan Armatrading

So many ladies love you

With the innocence of a child

Child who believes in God

You keep 'em in luxury

But it’s a luxury in the dark

You walk around

With a smile upon your face

But there’s something

That you don’t know

You’re luck’s run out

And it’s a time for you to go

Everybody told me I was crazy

To try to tame such a wild one

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

I got myself into this thing

Like I never knew I could and now

I gotta get away just as fast as I can

I got myself into this thing

And I’ll find a way out

You gave me babies

To you that proves your love

Tie my hands with jewels

Barefoot and pregnant you kept me

You sought to

Hide me from the truth

But your lady’s gone and bought some shoes

And she’s stepping out on the town

Your lady took herself in hand

And she’s spreading herself around

I wanted your love

But not at any price

You’re just the hurting kind

Say you want me for yourself

But your deeds deny it
