All Alone (No One to Be With) Lyrics


All alone, no one to be with you
All alone, no one to be with you
All alone, no one to be with you
All alone, no one to be with you
No one to be with youAs a youth, each Sunday, Dawn went to church
Paid her respects and not to mention was a virgin
Kid pushed up, Dawn lettin'
Since he made her laugh and all the other girls was sweatin'Then things started to move without cause
And a couple o'months later kid's pushin' for the drawers
Under pressure while exchangin' glances
Dawn finally gives in to the sexual advancesAlthough it was a mad high cost for her
'Cuz after the thrill was gone, so was the lust for her
Eventually he left her for another
Now feeling alone and betrayed by her loverShe cried for no longer knew which way she headed
Once dreamed of actually wearing white at her wedding
And really being pure, now she thought she'd die without
Still she finds strength to continue with her life withoutLove
(All alone, no one to be with)

Without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
Without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
Without love
(All alone, no one to be with)Verse two of Dawn's life, the second segment
What could be worse than to now find out you're pregnant?
Poor Dawn couldn't sleep, laid awake
Not ready for a child and plus her mother's gonna breakAs she doesn't know how she's gonna bring up the subject
Consequences of being used as an object
In church though time's runnin' thin
She decides to have the child because the doesn't want to sinProps to the girl although it hit hard times
It was hell finishin' school and working part-time
Yet Dawn did it though her youth went to waste
Little help from the government, she got her own placeHard for an independent woman and a kid
And as soon as she could get off the assistance, she did
Without no man who she once thought she'd die without
Still she finds the strength to continue with her life withoutLove
(All alone, no one to be with)
Life without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
Life without love
(All alone, no one to be with)Continue with her life without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
Hard for an independent
(All alone, no one to be with)
Hard for an independent
(All alone, no one to be with)
Hard for an independent
(All alone, no one to be with)While Dawn worked two jobs tryin' to meet ends
Her son was busy cuttin' school and hangin' with his friends
So when she got words she tried to slap out the taste in his mouth
And explain how important education isUnder stress, she takes two bufferin'
Son now tired of seein' his poor mother sufferin'
Starts to sell drugs though the cops did a raid
Guess who's in the mix, and being legal ageCould do time, please call her employer
To inform her that her son is gonna' need a lawyer
Never no good news, just more strife
Dawn barely havin' enough time to live her own lifeHere's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'
Now spends nine hours on the bus to go and see him
Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'
Now spends nine hours on the bus to go and see him
Without no man who she once thought she'd die without
Still she finds the strength to continue with her life withoutLove
(All alone, no one to be with)
Life without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
Life without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
Life without love
(All alone, no one to be with)Life without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
(No one to be with)(All alone)
This is a special remix
(All alone, no one to be with)
(No one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)

Slick Rick (born Richard Walters on January 14, 1965 in South Wimbledon, London, England) is an East Coast rapper, known for a series of hip hop recordings during the 1980s. He was blinded by broken glass as an infant and took to wearing an eyepatch from an early age. Walters moved with his family to the Bronx in 1975.

Charlie Rock of Harlem World crew was instrumental in Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick being brought together. When Doug requested an introduction after he had seen him win local MC battle contests. It was at an MC contest at the 369 Armory on 142nd street in Harlem, given by promotion partners Ray Chandler & Charlie Rock, The Rick & Doug were formally introduced by Rock.

As a 20-year-old in the summer of 1985 he scored his first big hits, "La Di Da Di" and "The Show." Once he gained a degree of wealth, Slick Rick also gained a reputation for regularly wearing an enormous amount of gold jewelry, including many large necklaces with giant pendants, bracelets, huge rings on each finger, and gold teeth.
