Daddy I Promise
She stares at that ring on her finger
With both hands clenched on the wheel
The road ahead is long and painful
The Texas heat dried off her tears
A night of rage and full of anger
That her makeup cannot conceal
After he slammed the door behind him
She wiped the blood and grabbed her keys
Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
His name is flashing on her cellphone
She can predict what he might say
The same tired old excuses
A U-turn she's not gonna to take
Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
She hasn't been in that house in a long time
The memories don't bring her joy
Her father is smoking on the front porch
Pride is something she can't afford
Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
Daddy I promise you one more thing
This time is different, please take me in
I got my baby asleep in the back seat
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he comes looking for me
With both hands clenched on the wheel
The road ahead is long and painful
The Texas heat dried off her tears
A night of rage and full of anger
That her makeup cannot conceal
After he slammed the door behind him
She wiped the blood and grabbed her keys
Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
His name is flashing on her cellphone
She can predict what he might say
The same tired old excuses
A U-turn she's not gonna to take
Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
She hasn't been in that house in a long time
The memories don't bring her joy
Her father is smoking on the front porch
Pride is something she can't afford
Daddy I promise you one more thing
This is the last time he lays his hands on me
I know we've travel down this road before
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
Daddy I promise you one more thing
This time is different, please take me in
I got my baby asleep in the back seat
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he lays his eyes on me
I promise I won't cave in
Next time he comes looking for me
