Kimberly Lyrics

I believe this song might be about Patti's first child who she gave up for adoption, but I'm not entirely sure. Any thoughts?

@Putingrad This is what I'm thinking. The usual conflict is whether it's about her sister or her daughter. The lie that I just noticed it "I rolled in the grass and I spit out the gass". I think it's about pregnancy.

The bit about "the storm settled in my belly" would suggest pregnancy, also.
