Текст песни «Taylor Swift - Brought Up That Way»

Emily comes home from school
Grabs on to her daddy's hand
He says baby girl what's wrong with you

She says, please don't make me go back there again
She says I wish there was some way to make them stop it
So he drives down to hat principals office

He says I didn't bring her up
So they could cut her down
I didn't bring her here
So they could shut her out
I live my whole damn life
To see that little girl smile
So why are tears pouring down that sweet face?
She wasn't brought up that way

Emily's home late again
He sees that boy drive away
But somethings different this time
She hasn't got much to say

She said he tried but there are some things I won't do
And through the tears she says I couldn't do that to you
he says,

I didn't bring you up

So he could wear you down
Take that innocent heart
And turn it inside out
I live my whole damn life to see my little girl smile
So don't let nobody take that away
You weren't brought up that way

The phone rings on a rainy night
Says it's officier Tate
He said, sir there's been an accident
You better come down here right away
A drunken driver missed an over-pass
And Emily, she's fading fast
He says,

God I didn't bring her up
So I could watch them lay her Down
Nearly killed me the day they put her mama in the ground
The only thing that kept me alive was that little girl's smile
So please don't take that away
It won't be easy takin her today
She wasn't brought up that way

he stands over the hospital bed
and Emily opens her eyes
