Shes Still There — текст песни (Trace Adkins)

(mark d. sanders/tim johnson)



Darlin heres a photograph of my old high school class

No I aint been back in quite a while

See there thats emma lou, the one I gave my heart to

But theres a story you cant see behind her smile

It was gonna last forever, we were gonna see the world

So I guess youre curious just what became of her, well



Shes still there in oklahoma

Shes still seventeen

Shes livin with her mama

Workin at the dairy queen

And shes still standin on the front porch

With a red ribbon in her hair

The rest of us have scattered everywhere

But shes still there



Everett went to omaha, he majored in business law

Jills in arkansas with husband number two

Thats her best friend jolene, she joined up with the marines

I hear billy greens on a beach in malibu

Yes and emma would be happy if she could only see us now

cause were livin out the lives that she only dreamed about



Shes still there in oklahoma

Shes still seventeen

Shes livin with her mama

Workin at the dairy queen

And shes still standin on the front porch

With a red ribbon in her hair

The rest of us have scattered everywhere

But shes still there



Lord, I know Ill never see her

With silver in her hair

I know shes really gone

But in my heart Id swear



Shes still there in oklahoma

Shes still seventeen

Shes livin with her mama

Workin at the dairy queen

And shes still standin on the front porch

With a red ribbon in her hair

The rest of us have scattered everywhere

But shes still there



Emmas still there
