It Takes A Man Lyrics

She locked her fingers and bowed her head
She said I'm late and I'm really scared
You can go but I hope you stay
I'm gonna keep it, either wayIn my daddy's El Camino
In her driveway in the rain
Staring through the windshield
I could see my future changeAnd my heart hit like a hammer
And my thoughts were running wild
Any fool can make a baby
It takes a man to raise a childI laid my head down on the wheel
She said I know, I know, it don't seem real
She closed her eyes, tears flowed through
She said, "Don't hate me for loving you"In my daddy's El Camino
In her driveway in the rain
Staring through the windshield
I could see my future changeAnd my heart hit like a hammer
And my thoughts were running wild
Any fool can make a baby

It takes a man to raise a childWell, I could not reassure her
I couldn't say what I had planned
Couldn't put three words together
So I just took her handIn my daddy's El Camino
In her driveway in the rain
Staring through the windshield
I could see my future changeAnd my heart hit like a hammer
And my thoughts were running wild
Any fool can make a baby
It takes a man to raise a child, it takes a man
