drink and drive

i went to a party, and remember what you said,
you told me not to drink so daddy,
i had a sprite instead

i felt pretty proud of myself
like you said i would ,
that i didn't drink and drive
though my friends said i should of

i made a healthy choice
your advice to me was right,
the party finally ended
and the kids drove out of sight

i got in my car thinking,
i would get home safe
i never knew what was coming next
daddy, something least expected

now i'm laying on the pavement cold and frial
i can hear the disappointment when the policeman said
“The kid who caused the wreck was drunk” daddy,
his voice seems so far away

my very own bloods lays all around me,
i try my best not to cry,
i can hear the paramedic say
“this poor girl is going to die”

i'm sure the guy had no idea,
while he was driving high
because he chose to drink and drive,
now i have to die

so why do people do it daddy,
if they know it could ruin other’s lives,
now the pain hurts like a thousand knives

tell brother to not be afraid
but to move on after my grave,
daddy you have done well
my life has been swell
and be sure to tell momma to be brave
and never let her pretty smile fade away
and when i go to heaven be sure to
put daddy's girl on my grave

someone should have to him
thats its wrong and dangerous to drink and drive
maybe if his parents did, i’d still be alive

daddy my breath ,is ,getting, shorter
i’m getting really scared
these are my final moments,
i am so unprepared

daddy i wish you were here to hold me,
at least i could feel your heartbeat as mine is put to rest,
as i lay here and die, i wish i could tell you i love you one more time,

so daddy i love you and good- bye.
