I Don't Understand Songtext
von Alecia Elliott

(Stephanie Bently/Adrienne Follese/Keith Follese)

There′s a little girl livin' on the street
I don′t understand
Turnin' tricks to get some some food to eat
I don't understand
There′s a mama prayin′ to God to bring her baby back
I don't understand
I don′t understand

There's a crack house down across the tracks
I don′t understand
People tradin' smoke for cold hard cash
I don′t understand
There's just no way this could be part of the greater plan
I don't understand
I don′t understand


Is everybody livin′ in a world without windows
Am I the only one who ses
If this is all that's left of what was once the promise land, oh
I just can′t comprehend it
I just don't understand

There′s a daddy walkin' out the door
I don′t understand
Leavin' three kids who need him more
Then he understands
These days the trouble starts right where the family ends
I don't understand
I don′t understand

Is everybody livin′ in a world without windows
Am I the only one who ses
If this is all that's left of what was once the promise land, oh
I just can′t comprehend it
I just don't understand

Is everybody livin′ in a world without windows
Am I the only one who ses
If this is all that's left of what was once the promise land, oh
I just can′t comprehend it
I just don't understand

I don't understand
