Mockingbrid Lyrics

Yeah
I know sometimes things might 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'chu crying about?
You got me..


Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad when I
But I
I can see you
Even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside, you wanna cry
Cuz you
Daddy
No more crying, wipe them tears, daddy
We gonna pull together through it, we gon
Laini, uncle
We
When it spins, when it swirls, when it whirls, when it twirls
Two little beautiful girls
Looking puzzled, in a daze
I know it
Daddy
Mama
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
That we did not plan it to be this way
You
But things have got so bad between us
I don
Like we used to be when we was teenagers
But then of course everything always happens for a reason
I guess it was never meant to be
But it
But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
Maybe one day we


[Chorus]
Now hush little baby don
Everythings gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady
I told ya, daddy
Through the night
I know mommy
We fear how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise, Mama


It
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
Cuz daddy couldn
Cuz 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, trying to 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
And it seemed like everything was just starting to fall apart
Mom and dad was arguing a lot
So mama moved back on the chammas and the flat, one bedroom apartment And dad moved back to the other side of 8 mile on Novarra
And that
And met Dr. Dre and flew you and Mama out 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
And you and Laini 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
Cuz all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud
Now I
Looking at your baby pictures it just trips me out to see how much you both have grown
It
Wow, I guess you pretty much are
And daddy
Laini I
Daddy
I like the sound of that, yeah
It
Shhh, mama


[Chorus]
Now hush little baby don
Everythings gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady
I told ya daddy
Through the night
I know mommy
We fear how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy pretty baby
But I promise
Mama


And if you ask me to,
Daddy
I
I
I
And if the mockingbird don
I
I
And make him eat every carrat
Don
haha
