Riding on a city bus On the way to school Me and my two sisters And all the ridicule
The older girls on the back of the bus school Would laugh and call us names They'd talk about our hair our clothes And call us homemade See, "the not so good old days" Can make you weake Or make you brave
I've never been The most beautifull No I ain't never been The most popular But it's amazing what love can do It's amazing what a little love can do
Every thought and action Is like a boomerang What goes around will come back baby So carefull what you say And the little uggly ducklings Are swans that got away 'Cause Cinderela stories They still happen everyday Where "the not so good old days" Could make you weake or make you brave
Still I've never been The most beautifull No I ain't never been The most popular But it's amazing what love can do It's amazing what a little love can do
I bumped into a stranger just the other day She say: "can you spare a dollar sista"? My man he ain't got paid So I gave her what I had Then I recognized her face She was the leader of the girls Who used to call us homemade
Back when the "not so good old days" Could make you weak or make you brave
I've never been The most beautifull I don't really care that I ain't never been The most popular But it's amazing what love will do Ain't It amazing what homemade love will do
