Текст песни
Yeah, I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier, stiffen up that upper lip
What you crying about? You got me
Hailie, I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
When I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life you never had
I can see you sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you wanna cry
'Cause you're scared, I ain't there, daddy's with you in your prayers
No more crying, wipe them tears, daddy's here, no more nightmares
We gonna pull together through it, we gon' do it
Laney, uncle's crazy ain't he? Yeah
But he loves you girl, and you better know it
We're all we got in this world, when it spins, when it swirls
When it whirls, when it twirls, two beautiful girls
Looking puzzled in a daze, I know it's confusing you
Daddy's always on the move, mama's always on the news
I try to keep you sheltered from it
But somehow it seems, the harder that I try to do that
The more it backfires on me
All the things growing up as daddy that he had to see
Daddy don't want you to see, but you see just as much as he did
We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
But things have got so bad between us, I don't see us ever being together
Ever again like we used to be when was teenagers
But then of course, everything always happens for a reason
I guess it was never meant to be
But it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is
Well, no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream
Now hush little baby don't you cry, everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told ya
Daddy's here to hold ya, through the night
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We feel how we feel inside, it may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise, mama's gon' be alright
It's funny, I remember back one year when daddy had no money
Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up and stuck them under the tree
And said some of them were from me
'Cause daddy couldn't buy'em, I'll never forget that Christmas
I sat up the whole night crying, 'cause daddy felt like a bum
See daddy had a job but his job was to keep the food on the table
For you and mom, and at the time every house that we lived in
Either kept getting broken into and robbed or shot up on the block
And your mom was saving money for you in a jar
Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you can go to college
Almost had a thousand dollars till someone broke in and stole it
And I know it hurt so bad, it broke your mama's heart
And it seems like everything was just starting to fall apart
Mom and dad was arguing a lot so mama moved back
On the Chalmers in the flat, one bedroom apartment
And dad moved back to the other side of 8 mile on Novarra
And that's when daddy went to California with his CD
And met Dr. Dre and flew you and mama to see me
But daddy had to work, you and mama had to leave me
Then you started seeing daddy on the TV and mama didn't like it
And you and Laney were too young to understand it
Papa was a rolling stone, mama developed a habit
And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
I'm just sorry you was there you was there and had to witness it firsthand
'Cause all I ever wanted to do is make you proud
Now I'm sittin' in the empty house just reminiscin'
Looking at your baby pictures, it just trips me out
To see how much you both have grown
It's almost like we're sisters now, wow I guess you pretty much are
And daddy's still here, Laney I'm talking to you too, daddy's still here
I like the sound of that, yeah, It's got a ring to it, don't it?
Shh, mama's only gone for the moment
Now hush little baby don't you cry, everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told ya
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We feel how we feel inside, it may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise, mama's gonna be alright
And if you ask me to, daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
I'ma give you the world, I'ma buy a diamond ring for you
I'ma sing for you, I'll do anything for you to see you smile
And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
I'ma break that birdie's neck, I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
And make them eat every karat, don't fuck with dad, haha
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier, stiffen up that upper lip
What you crying about? You got me
Hailie, I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
When I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life you never had
I can see you sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you wanna cry
'Cause you're scared, I ain't there, daddy's with you in your prayers
No more crying, wipe them tears, daddy's here, no more nightmares
