---------------------------The Little Girl---------------------------------
CAPO I
Verse I
Her parents never took the youg girl to church,
Never spok of His name, never read her His Word.
Two non believers walking lost in this world.
Took there baby with them, oh what a sad little girl.
Her daddy drank all day and mommy did drugs
Never wanted to play or give kisses and hugs
She d watch the TV and sit there on that couch,
While her mom fell asleep and her daddy went out.
Chorus I
And the drinking, and the fighting,
Just got worse every night
Behind their couch, she d be hiding,
Oh what a sad little life
Verse II
And like it always does, the bad just got worse,
With ever slap, and every curse
Until her daddy in a drunk rage one night,
Used a gun on her mom, and then took his life.
Chorus II
Then some people, from the city,
Took the girl far away
To a new mom, and a new daddy
Kisses and hugs every day.
Verse III
First day of Sunday school, the teacher walked in,
Saw a small little girl, staring at a picture of him.
She said I know that man, there on that cross,
I don t know his name, but I know he got off.
Chorus III
Cause he was there in my old house,
Held me close to his side.
As I hid there behind our couch.
The night that my parents died.
