It Takes a Man

[Verse 1]
She locked her fingers and bowed her head
She said I'm late and I'm really scared
Now you can go but I hope you stay
I'm gonna keep it either way

[Chorus]
In my daddy's El Camino
In her driveway in the rain
Staring through that windshield
I could see my future change
And my heart hit like a hammer
And my thoughts were running wild
Any fool can make a baby
But it takes a man to raise a child

[Verse 2]
I laid my head down on the wheel
She said "I know, I know it don't seem real"
She closed her eyes but the tears flowed through
She said "don't hate me for loving you"

[Chorus]
In my daddy's El Camino
In her driveway in the rain
Staring through that windshield
I could see my future change
And my heart hit like a hammer
And my thoughts were running wild
Any fool can make a baby
But it takes a man to raise a child

[Verse 3]
Oh, I could not reassure her
I couldn't say what I had planned
Couldn't put three words together
So I just took her hand

[Chorus]
In my daddy's El Camino
In her driveway in the rain
Staring through that windshield
I could see my future change
And my heart hit like a hammer
And my thoughts were running wild
Any fool can make a baby
