16 years, 16 ways, they shot my babies by mistake
I'm all alone on a midnight ride, my 16 kids they all have died
They ain't coming back, it's too late
I haven't slept in 14 days, now it's time to barricade
Myself in these four walls, my 16 kids they all are gone
They ain't coming back, now it's too late
They shot my babies but they k**ed my faith
They shot my babies but they k**ed my faith
I worked so hard for 40 years, I told my girl, said I had nothing to fear
Then one by one they got shot down, the youngest one held a gun to his ear
They ain't coming back, no-no-no, it's too late
They shot my babies but they k**ed my faith
They ain't coming back, no, it's too late
They shot my babies but they k**ed my faith
They shot my babies but they k**ed my faith
They shot my babies but they k**ed my faith
They shot my babies but they k**ed my faith
