The Little Girl
Performed By John M. Montgomery
Transcribed by Terry Fouty
D
Her parents never took the young girl to church
E
A
never spoke of his name, never read her his word
D
Two non-belivers walking lost in this world
E A
took their baby with-in, what a sad little girl
D
Her daddy drank all day and mommy did drugs
E
A
never wanted to play, or give kisses and hugs
D
She'd watch the T.V. and sit there on the couch
E
A
while her mom fell asleep, and her daddy went out
G A
And the drinking, and the fighting
D A
Just got worse every night
G A
behind their couch she'd be hiding
D A
oh what a sad little life
D
Just like it always does, the bad just got worse
E A
with every slap, and every curse
D
untill her daddy hit a drunk rage one night
E
A
used a gun on her mom, and then took his life
G A D A
And some people from the city, took the girl far away
G A D A
to a new mom and a new dad, kisses and hugs everyday
D
Her first day of sunday school, the teacher walked in
E
A
and a small little girl stared at a picture of him
D
she said I know that man up there on that cross
E
A
I dont know his name but I know he got off
G A
Cause he was there in my old house
D A
and held me close to his side
G A
as I hid there behind our couch
D A
the night that my parents died
