Hard 16 Dady didn't care, mama wasn't there Jenny slammed the door to her heart Packed a suitcase of anger No one tried to save her She headed for the city that shines in the dark But the lights fade away When you're young on the streets without a friend Jeanny learned to survive Put a price on the nights that never end CHORUS: She's hard 16 Soft to the touch but she's seen too much She's hard 16 Will her soul run dry by 17 The face of innocence doesn't stand a chance Between the losers, the takers, the lost So, Jenny never cried Locked her pain inside She's trapped in a time bomb Ready to blow There will come a day When the mirror reveals a total stranger Another lonely runaway in a living hell She's turning CHORUS Jenny please come home You've got so much to give So much life to live So, come home CHORUS
