I know he beat on her with his belt; And all her life she cried inside
She never had the words to say how she felt; And how she kept it out of sight
For the men who never gave a damn; Her husband, her father and their goddamn pride
He left her with three kids in a foreign land; One of them was a rape child
She never had the words to say how she felt; And all her life she cried inside
Coz of the man who broke her heart; The father of her children, a cheater and a liar
I know he beat on her with his belt
I know what that one did in that bed
And all my life I know I'll try to make it right
And all their lives they cried inside
And some of them tears keep flowin' in my veins
And all my life I know I'll try
To dry them and maybe one day be the first of us to smile inside
I know he beat on her with his belt
