Verses
1 - Little black girl sitting on the rug, laid on the concrete floor<br>
Its very quiet, nearly dark, Be strong, little one, be strong<br>
2 - You lift your face and stare, up at the homemade lamp
Its flicker catches tears in your eyes, Be strong, little one, be strong<br>
3 - The windows are open, but the air is hot, Crickets make noises that<br>
sound like rhythmns to a song, Be strong, little one, be strong
Chorus
Its warm but you are lonely, its peaceful but you wish the sadness would go away,<br>Be strong, little one, be strong<br>
You think maybe no-one will come for you again
No mother for you, only the cruel ones who say, no-one wanted you.
be strong, little one, be strong
