Skipping cracks on the street in the summertime
Screaming as the days go slipping by
Working two jobs just to get on by these days
Two kids, no husband, on the streets
Been spending all her money on some food to eat
Been sleeping in her car on the back seat these days
Keep moving, get through this, get to this, don't do this
She's sick of her life, living this way
Keep flowing, keep going, been so long since knowing
Leaving in her keys for the getaway
Dropped her kids off at her folks today so they
Wouldn't see what it is mama had to do
Just to get on by, just to push on through
"There'll be a better day and it's coming soon" she prays
Keep moving, get through this, get to this, don't do this
She's sick of her life, living this way
Keep flowing, keep going, been so long since knowing
Just how it feels to be ok, these days
