Miranda Lambert - Babies Makin' Babies Lyrics






Two kids from Tacoma
In a '72 Nova,
No pill and barely old enough to drink,
Learned the ropes and tested science,
Started pentecostal riots,
In just five minutes behind the rolling rink,
In the backseat brings

The American dream on a shoestring,
First you grow it, then you show it,
Give a good push just like a Brady,
Say you'll love them 'till your eighty,
Too soon to be a mother and father,
But too late for the alma mater,
Yeah it's always in the water
Babies makin' babies

Between diplomas and the diapers,
They become couch quarter finders,
Savin' up for a Maytag microwave,
Oh but all has been forgiven,
On the day the water christen,
The best thing that could have happened by mistake,

The American dream on a shoestring,
First you grow it then you show it,
Give a good push just like a Brady,
Say you'll love them 'till your eighty,
Too soon to be a mother and father,
But too late for the alma mater,
Yeah it's always in the water
Babies makin' babies

Well it's a tried and true equation,
maintains a small town population,
Thats turns us all into a family,

The American dream on a shoestring,
First you grow it then you show it,
Give a good push just like a Brady,
Say you'll love them 'till you're eighty,
Too soon to be a mother and father,
But too late for the alma mater,
Yeah its always in the water,
Babies makin' babies

Yes it's always in the water,
Babies makin babies

    Look at America dreams now, lol. Blessings Miranda 🌷

  3. N.... A....

    just cant stop listening to this beautiful song

  4. c.... c....

    I LOVE LITERALLY ANYTHING that comes out of Miranda's mouth so that means I LOVE this as well but I understand every single lyric in this song. But the title should NOT be babies makin babies. If you're old enough to be sleeping together you're not even close to a baby. The baby is what comes AFTER you sleep together

  5. T.... M....

    the American dream on a shoestring first you grow it and then you show it Love it!!!

  6. T.... H....

    all the traditional country singers made silly songs ,, you don't get it ,,,  they're so good even something silly is great

  7. C.... R....

    Miranda, real Singer. Good person and amazing country woman. 👏👏👏🌷🌷🌷

  8. g.... ....

    or u could hav an abortion and not throw your life away and hav a baby when ur old enough to hav one and can afford it js....

  9. A.... C....

    Love this song. Had my son at 15. He just turned 16. Wouldn't trade him for the world!!!

    A.... C....

    Ashley Carter damn... Thats way too young. I'm 13 and also asexual, I literally can't imagine having a child ever, especially at such young age, that's not even old enough to have sex, what happened? xD

  10. S.... T....

    Love how they use the chorus to kick it in.

  11. M.... ....

    No sure I like this.
    Guess I'm old fashion.

  12. b.... o....

    so good

  13. G.... ....

    I know lots of people that this song relates too.

    G.... ....

    GinnyE25Mikah96 same, my moms one of em

  14. B.... M....

    Can't we enjoy the old and the new? I do.

    B.... M....

    @Brooks Mick Well, except rap. That bears no relation to music.

  15. b.... a....

    i love miranda so much and she is my role model i went to see her in concert one time and got to move to the front cause the guy in front of us was drunk

  16. L.... T....

    I like it

  17. E.... M....

    Literally the song I think of when I think of my cousin and his fiancé and their 2 month old son

  18. C.... V....

    I love Miranda as much as anyone else but, face it country isn't country anymore. Anyone who is country aren't on our country stations. It doesn't make sense anymore. What happend to the traditional stuff Gretchen Wilson, Merle Haggard or Conway Twitty, no one cares about them anymore and it's sad the ppl coming into this world thinking they know what real country music is thinking its this junk, well bless your heart. I'm so sorry, I may be young but I grew up listening to the traditional but, it's sad we don't have that anymore. We have this.

    C.... V....

    +Cheyenne Vanover
    I know what you mean this song does not really make sense

    C.... V....

    +maybellinelover   I like the old stuff, I like the new too

    C.... V....

    music itself is different

    C.... V....

    +Cheyenne Vanover its true, i don't listen to much of the new because of it

    C.... V....

    and what about all the teen parents who actually became successful ? nope can't make a song about how sometimes things just go a little unplanned but you can't let that stop you. I had my daughter at 17 , live in a house , my husband works full time a great job that allows me to stay home and take care of the kids and we aren't struggling? we don't fight he's still here, but let's just dwell on putting down the teens who actually raise there kids and take life into there own hands and not let there kids be an excuse to fail. 

    K.... S....

    Okay, she's not implying thst this happens to everyone, she's just saying that being under 21 may be a little to young to have a child when you just turned an adult. Some people can't handle it.

    K.... S....

    literally people have to always find something to complain about just shut up ...

    K.... S....

    +Kendra Smith I don't think anywhere she said they weren't successful, or it was a bad decision. In fact it said "The best thing that could have happened by mistake", and "Turns us all into a family" so with all due respect stop trying to find something to complain about and enjoy the song

    K.... S....

    you took that too far it's just a song.

  21. A.... M....

    Real life. Real country. Love Miranda

    A.... M....

    Angel Mcglothlin real country as opposed to what

  22. s.... ....

    hollyyy shit this aint sly and the family stone... if it aint funk its junk!!!

  23. m.... h....

    amazing song 

  24. s.... ....

    I love this song, but it just sounds so depressing to me

  25. h.... ....

  26. J.... A....

    Babies Are Always Making Babies

  27. b.... ....

  28. K.... W....

  29. r.... g....

  36. K.... B....

    Love it fits today's generation perfect

    K.... B....

    Yet the teen pregnancy rate was higher in the 90's then it is now...

    K.... B....

    @Abbey B its not, it's actually lower but the media has added to the idea of it. Like mtvs 16 and pregnant, it's just more in the public eye. Not actually a higher rate. 

    K.... B....

    @Robert Ivaniszyn Hence why I said it was higher in the 90's LOL

  37. j.... d....

    Is she really talking about Tacoma, WA?

  38. A.... B....

    Love it

  39. D.... ....

    Damn...this is literally my husband and I's song.

    D.... ....

    Ours too. And hell yeah I'm proud of it, my daughter is the best thing that has ever happened to me!

    D.... ....

    Madysen Yates its not just about kids... Its about people who had kids at a way too young of an age, but by time the baby is born no one seems to give a crap that the mother is only like 18.

    D.... ....

    awomaninscience what’s wrong with being a teen parents?

    D.... ....

    awomaninscience as long as the babies is being taken care of mind your damn business

    D.... ....
