peggy scott-adams - spousal abuse lyrics

[intro: peggy scott+adams, husband & son]
open the door baby it’s me
c’mon baby open the door i know you hear me out here
man i’m not letting you back in here to hurt me like you always do
you’re scaring the children i’m calling 911
you better open the door
dad, you leave my mommy alone

[verse 1]
i’m leaving this man and i’m going today
soon as he goes to work, i’m going away

[pre+chorus]
i’ve been trying to hold on but it ain’t no use
i can’t take no more of this spousal abuse
(mommy, what’s wrong with daddy?)

[verse 2]
at first it was a slap, then he would apologise
then came no respect, busted lips and swollen eyеs

[pre+chorus]
i’ve been trying to hold on but it ain’t no use
i can’t take no morе of this spousal abuse

[chorus]
i’m not going to be his punching bag
what he’s got will soon be what he had
i’m not going to let him keep abusing me
see i’m not into pain and i’ll never be
[verse 3]
he says that he loves me and he wants n0body else
i’ll be d+mned if i’ll stay here until he loves me to death
i’m afraid of the man, oh but that’s no excuse
for me to stay here and take this abuse

[pre+chorus 2]
i’m through holding on
even children are no excuse
for anyone woman out there today
to live with abuse
(mommy, please stop daddy)

[verse 4]
my son says “mommy, you’re not being bad
so why is it that daddy, daddy hits you?
it makes me feel so sad”
(daddy, leave my mommy alone)
i took him in my arms
and said “baby, don’t cry
daddy won’t hurt me no more
’cause you and mommy are going bye bye”

[pre+chorus]
i’ve been holding on but i tell you, it ain’t no use
i’m getting out while i can from this spousal abuse
hey
[chorus]
i’m not going to be his punching bag (i’m not going to be, hey)
what he’s got will soon be what he had (what he’s got, it’ll soon be what he had)
i’m not going to let him keep abusing me (no, no, i’m not into pain)
i’m not into pain and i’ll never be (and i tell you i’ll never be)

[bridge]
and i know that most men out there would never hit a woman
and i believe this to be true
so this is not about the many who don’t
but it is about the few who do
and you know who you are

i won’t be, no, no, no, no, oh

[chorus]
i’m not going to be his punching bag (no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
what he’s got will soon be what he had (will soon be what he had)
i’m not going to let him keep abusing me (i’m not going to let him, keep on abusing me)
