God Was Watching Tracy Chapman

Whose child is this, this child of mine?
Who thinks this world will give you anything
If you ain't fighting
I was too soft. I was too kind
If there's anyone who's mislead you
The blame's all mine

I tried I tried I tried
To love you and keep you
And shelter you from harm
If I if I were right I failed you must know
It weren't for lack of trying

But you had food to eat
And you had clothes to wear
And I had a job
There's a roof over our head
And God was watching
And God was watching
And God was watching over us

And if it's true that God takes care
Of babies and fools
I'll live my life rested assured that God will take care of you

Whose child is this, this child of mine?
Who thinks this world will give you anything if you ain't fighting
I was too soft. I was too kind
If there's anyone who's mislead you
The blame's all mine
The blame's all mine
The blame's all mine
