VERSE: She's only 12 years old but she's sold her soul/standing on a corner/she's somebody's daughter/but she ain't never going home/and all she wanted was some freedom so she snuck out of the house/got mixed up with some guys she didn't know she shouldn't trust/too niave to see the danger she walked into a trap/now she's hooked on drugs and so she walks the street/she's only 12 years old/but she's growing up fast


CHORUS: Little Girl, it's a big world/so many twists so many turns/is this the way you thought it would be/open your eyes to reality


VERSE: When she was sweet 16 her baby girl was born/it killed her to admit it, but she just couldn't raise her/she had to find her girl a home/so she brought her to her family to raise her as their own/she kissed her girl goodbye, made a prayer to let her go/she walked away with teardrops streaming down her face/but she knew inside that her choice was right/she's only sweet 16/and her baby is safe


CHORUS: Little Girl, it's a big world/so many twists, so many turns/you'll never know how it's gonna be/but you can choose your destiny


BRIDGE: Well who would have known/that little girl would lose her soul/and who could foresee that she would create anything/so beautiful, the life she brought into this world/her baby girl, is all grown up/she'd be so proud just to know her/that little girl
