FLOORBOARD
IS FILLED WITH
BABY TOYS AND
EMPTY COKE BOTTLES
AND COFFEE CUPS
DRIVIN' THROUGH
THE RAIN
WITH NO RADIO
TRYIN' NOT TO
WAKE HER UP
CELL PHONE SAYS
LOW BATTERY
GOD WHAT IF I
BREAK DOWN
I'M JUST LOOKIN'
FOR AN EXIT WITH A
LOT OF LIGHTS
IN A SAFE LITTLE
INTERSTATE TOWN
JUST A CHEAP HOTEL
WITH A SINGLE BED
AND CABLE T.V.
IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME
AND EMILY
4 BAR
BREAK
SOMEDAY WHEN SHE'S
OLD ENOUGH
SHE'S GONNA START
ASKIN' QUESTIONS
ABOUT HIM
SOME KID AT SCHOOL
BRINGS HIS DAD
FOR SHOW AND TELL
AND IT GETS HER LITTLE
MIND
'A WONDERIN'
WHERE'S MY DADDY
DO I HAVE ONE
DOES HE NOT LOVE ME
LIKE YOU DO
OH MAYBE I'LL FIND
SOMEONE TO LOVE
THE BOTH OF US
AND I'LL
TELL HER WHEN SHE'S
OLD ENOUGH TO
KNOW THE TRUTH
WILL IT BREAK HER HEART
WILL SHE UNDERSTAND
THAT I HAD TO LEAVE
THAT'S WHAT WAS BEST
FOR ME AND EMILY
THE HOUSE WAS NEVER
CLEAN ENOUGH
HIS DINNER NEVER
WARM ENOUGH
NOTHING I DID
WAS EVER
GOOD ENOUGH
TO MAKE HIM HAPPY
SO I GUESS HE GAVE ME
WHAT HE THOUGHT
I DESERVED
BUT IT WOULD KILL ME
IF HE EVER RAISED
HIS HAND TO HER
4 BAR
BREAK
BIG RIGS ARE THROWIN'
RAIN ON MY WINDSHIELD
AND I
FEEL LIKE
THEY'RE LAUGHIN' AT ME
FINALLY THE STORM IS
LETTING UP
AND THE MORNING
IS BREAKIN' FREE
IT'S A BRAND NEW DAY
IT'S A SECOND CHANCE
YESTERDAY IS JUST
A MEMORY
FOR ME AND EMILY
4 BAR
BREAK
FLOORBOARD IS FILLED
WITH
BABY TOYS AND
EMPTY COKE BOTTLES
AND COFFEE CUPS
LEAST THERE'S ONE
GOOD THING
THAT HE GAVE ME
AND SHE'S
STARTIN' TO WAKE UP
