Love Child (Alternate Version) The Supremes

[Intro]
Tenement slum
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah

[Verse 1]
You think that I don't feel love
But what I feel for you is real love
In those eyes, I see reflected
A hurt, scorned, rejected

[Chorus 1]
Love child, never meant to be
Love child, born in poverty
Love child, never meant to be
Love child, take a look at me

[Verse 2]
Started my life in an old, cold, rundown
Tenement slum (Tenement slum)
My father left, he never even married mom
I shared the guilt, my mama knew
So afraid that others knew I had no name

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Ah, this love we're contemplating
Is worth the pain of waiting
We'll only end up hating
The child we may be creating
