She was only ten when her daddy got fired He drank away the family home and left them all alone And then her mommy was just too tired So she got sent away She moved in with her aunt in Arizona Everything was fine until she told on Uncle Bill When he said he only wanted to hold her She had to run away But when it rains, the past gets washed away, and then She smiles 'cause she knows in the end The world gets beautiful, beautiful again
Her boyfriend said I'm way too young to get married But she made up her mind that somehow she was gonna Find a way to keep that baby she carried And he just walked away But when it rains, the past gets washed away, and then She smiles 'cause she knows in the end The world gets beautiful, beautiful again
And when she's lying all alone Thinkin' about her life she wonders If she is wrong to believe in a better world Then she sees her little girl And she knows she is right 'cause
She smiles 'cause she knows in the end The world gets beautiful, beautiful again
