Emily comes home from school
Grabs on to her daddy's hand
He says baby girl what's wrong with you
She says, please don't make me go back there again
She said I wish there was some way to make 'em stop it
-once
So he drives down to that principals office, and says
I didn't bring her up
So they could cut her down
I didn't bring her here
So they could shut her out
I live my whole damn life
To see that little girl smile
So why are tears pouring down that sweet face?
She wasn't brought up that way
Emily's home late again
He sees that boy drive away
Oh, but somethings different this time
She doesn't have too much to say
She said he tried, but there just some things I won't do
And through the tears she said I couldn't do that to you
-once
And he said,
I didn't bring you up
So he could wear you down
Take that innocent heart
And turn it inside out
I live my whole damn life
To see my little girl smile
So don't let nobody take that away
You weren't brought up that way
-once
The phone rings on a rainy night
Says it's Officer Tate
He said, Sir there's been an accident
You better come down here right away
A drunken driver missed an over-pass
-once
And Emily, she's fading fast, he says God
I didn't bring her up
To watch them lay her Down
Nearly killed me the day they put her mama in the ground
Only thing kept me alive was that little girl's smile
So please don't take that away
It won't be easy taking her today
She wasn't brought up that way
He stands over the hospital bed
Emily opens her eyes
There you have it! Have fun!! Rate:)
