Bonnie’s Song

My name is Bonnie, I'm just a throw away
My step-dad threw me out of the house just the other day
He touches me in places, my momma won't believe
I'm fourteen years old and I live out on the street
I'm fourteen years old and I live out on the street

My boyfriend, Tony, he's a busboy down at Ned's
Sometimes I sleep behind his mamma's house out in the shed
She calls me trash and whore, so I stay out of sight
I'm fourteen years old and I hide out in the night
I'm fourteen years old and I hide out in the night

I want to have a baby, something for me to love
But I know Tony’d leave me if he knew what I was thinking of
But he likes to love me, like all the other boys
I'm fourteen years old and I want something to love
I'm fourteen years old and I want something to love

There's a guy named Shadow, says he wants to help me out
He says he’s got work for any girl who wants to put it out
He says he likes me and I could be his main squeeze
I'm fourteen years old and I live out on the street
I'm fourteen years old and I live out on the street

My name is Bonnie, I'm just a throw away
My step-dad threw me out of the house just the other day
He touches me in places, my momma won't believe
I'm fourteen years old and I live out on the street
I'm fourteen years old and I live out on the street
