[00:00.81]The Little Girl （feat. Alison Krauss & Dan Tyminski） - John Michael Montgomery
[00:19.43]Her parents never took the young girl to church
[00:24.43]Never spoke of His Name
[00:27.12]Never read her His Word
[00:30.25]Two non believers walkin' lost in this world
[00:35.81]Took their baby with them what a sad little girl
[00:42.24]Her Daddy drank all day and Mommy did drugs
[00:47.31]Never wanted to play or give kisses and hugs
[00:53.62]She'd watch the TV and sit there on the couch
[00:58.74]While her Mom fell asleep and her Daddy went out
[01:05.93]And the drinking and the fighting just got worse every night
[01:17.06]Behind their couch she'd be hiding oh what a sad little life
[01:29.93]
[01:41.06]And like it always does the bad just got worse
[01:46.31]With every slap and every curse
[01:52.31]Until her Daddy in a drunken rage one night
[01:57.31]Used a gun on her Mom and then took his life
[02:04.50]And some people from the city took the girl far away
[02:15.93]To a new Mom and a new Dad
[02:22.18]Kisses and hugs everyday
[02:29.31]
[02:39.50]Her first day of Sunday school the teacher walked in
[02:44.50]And a small little girl stared at a picture of Him
[02:50.75]She said I know that man there on that cross
[02:56.12]I don't know His name but I know He got off
[03:03.18]Cause He was there in my old house
[03:08.87]And held me close to His side
[03:14.43]As I hid there behind our couch
[03:20.94]The night that my parents died
