Little Girl Lyrics

bling~~bling, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah...
uhm, uhm, uhm, uhm...
flash back to a mid-west town... in a time of renaissance, an innocent child
saturdays and soul train
music feeds a budding mind
pain and glory on your FM dial
just a little girl in a big world (big world)
hiding in the shadow of the light
just a little girl in a big world (big world)
ohhh listen to the voice of your divine
moma, in that big o' lincoln
fryin' fish good to the bone
two baby girls ouu ouu she did it alone
did it alone, did it alone...
daddy in that big o'sky, ran fast
maybe too fast sometimes
always there right here yea
pain and glory on my FM dial
just a little girl in a big world
hiding in the shadow of the light
just a little girl in a big world
ohhh listen to the voice of your divine
wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, whatchu wanna know, yea
whatchu wanna know, whatchu wanna know
ohhhh yea
just a little girl in a big world (in a big world)
...whatchu wanna know
...whatchu wanna know
...whatchu wanna know, hmm, hmm.
[monologue background...
different aspects of life, you know the good, the bad, the positive, simply entitled LIFE, the negative, the dull, the exciting, the whole thing, attention, the conflict---little girl]
just a little girl in a big world
hiding in the shadow of the light---yea, yea, yea
just a little girl in a big world
ohhh listen to the voice of your divine
(flash back)
just a little girl in a big world
hiding in the shadow of the light
(flash back)
just a little girl in a big world
pain and glory on my FM dial
(flash back)
pain and glory on my FM dial
(flash back)
pain and glory on my FM dial

Lalah Hathaway is a contemporary R&B/Jazz singer and the daughter of soul legend Donny Hathaway. After studying at Berklee, Hathaway signed with Virgin Records and released her self titled debut, Lalah Hathaway, in 1990. The set spawned 4 R&B Hits, including the Top 5 smash Heaven Knows. Her 1994 follow up, A Moment, did less well, and Hathaway parted ways with Virgin. She went on to work with many other established artists, including Take 6, Mary J. Blige and Marcus Miller, writing, producing and doing background vocals.

In 1999 Jazz legend Joe Sample collaborated with Lalah on the album The Song Lives On, which became a staple on both Jazz and Smooth R&B radio, as well as topping the Jazz charts. However, it would not be until 2004 that Lalah Hathaway would resurface with her own project. She had her biggest hit single in years with an inspired cover of the late Luther Vandross' Forever, For Always, For Love, topping the Urban AC Chart and reaching Top 40 on Billboards mainstream R&B chart, a feat repeated by Outrun the Sky, Hathaway's first solo album in a decade, which was released late in the year.
