[Verse 1]
Riding the city bus on the way to school
Me and my two sisters and all the ridicule
The older girls on the back of the bus
Would laugh and call us names
They'd talk about our hair, our clothes
And call us homemade

[Pre-Chorus 1]
See the "not so good ole days"
Can make you weak or make you brave

[Chorus 1]
And I've never been the most beautiful
No I ain't never been the most popular
But it's amazing what love can do
It's amazing what a little love can do

[Verse 2]
Every thought and action
Is like a boomerang
What goes around will come back baby
So careful what you say
And the little ugly ducklings
Are swans that got away
Cause Cinderella stories
They still happen everyday
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Where the "not so good ole days"
Could make you weak or make you brave

[Chorus 2]
And I've never been
The most beautiful
Don't care I've never been
The most popular
Still it's amazing what love can do
It's amazing what a little love will do

[Post-Chorus]
I'm in love with him

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
See I bumped into a stranger
Just the other day
She said "Can you spare a dollar sista'?"
"My man he ain't got paid"
So I gave her what I had
Then I recognized her face
She was the leader of the girls who used to call us homemade
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Back when the "not so good ole days"
Could make you weak or make you brave

[Chorus 3]
And I told her I've never been
The most beautiful
And I don't really care that ain't never been The most popular
But it's amazing what love will do
It's amazing what
Homemade love will do
What Homemade Love Will Do...

[Instrumental]
