C                              
Father comes home from work, and 
                 D
he's scared to death
C                                 
Mother cries for the kid, and the 
         D
note she read
C                                 
Father runs to the table, he says 
        D
"What's going on?"
C                            
Mother cries desperately, "Our 
                D
little baby's gone!"

(Chorus x2)
                       C
Do you know where your children are?
                 D
Because it's now twelve o'clock
                         C
If they're somewhere out on the 
street
                 D
Just imagine how scared they are

stepdaddy using her
C                                 
Saying that he'll buy her things, 
               D
while sexually abusing her
     C

               D
somewhere out on the street
