Luyện nghe bài hát Mockingbird

Yeah, I sometimes
Things may not always make to you right now
But hey, what daddy always tell you? Straighten up, soldier
Stiffen up upper lip, what you cryin' about? You got me

Hailie I know you your mom and I know you miss your dad
When I'm gone but I'm tryin' to give you the life I never had
I can see you're sad, even you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in eyes, deep inside you wanna cry

'Cause scared, I ain't there, daddy's with you in your prayers
No cryin', wipe them tears, daddy's here no more nightmares
We pull together through it, we gon' do it Laney
Uncle's crazy ain't he yeah but he loves you girl and you better it

We're all we got it this world, when it spins, it swirls
it whirls, when it twirls, two little beautiful girls
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze, I know confusin' you
Daddy's always on the move, mama's always on the

I try to keep up sheltered from it but it seems
The harder that I try to do that, the more it on me
All the things growin' up as that he had to see
Daddy don't want you to see but you see as much as he did

We did not plan it to be this way, mother and me
But things have got so bad between us, I don't see us
Bein' together ever again, like we used to be when we was
But then of everything always happens for a reason

I guess it was meant to be but it's just somethin'
That we no control over and that's what destiny is
But no more worries, rest your head and go to
Maybe one day we'll wake up and this'll all just be a

Now hush little baby, you cry
Everything's be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I ya
Daddy's here to hold you through the

I know mommy's not right now
And we don't know why, we how we feel inside
It may a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise, momma's be alright

Heh, funny, I remember back one year
daddy had no money
Mommy the Christmas presents up
And stuck 'em the tree

And said some of 'em from me
daddy couldn't buy 'em
I'll never forget Christmas
I sat up the night cryin'

'Cause daddy felt a bum, see daddy had a job
But his job was to keep the on the table for you and mom
And at the time, every house we lived in
Either gettin' broken into and robbed or shot up on the block

And mom, was savin' money for you in a jar
Tryin' to start a piggy for you so you could go to college
Almost had a thousand dollars, 'til someone in and stole it
And I know it hurt so bad, it broke your heart

And it seemed like everything was just to fall apart
Mom and dad was arguin' a lot, so momma moved
On the Chalmers in the flat, one bedroom
And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on

And that's when daddy went to California his CD
And met Dr. Dre and you and momma out to see me
But daddy had to work, you and momma had to me
Then you started daddy on the TV

And didn't like it and you and Laney were too young
To understand that papa was a stone, momma developed a habit
And it all too fast for either one of us to grab it
I'm sorry, you were there and had to witness it first hand

'Cause all I wanted to do was just make you proud
Now I'm sittin' in empty house, just reminiscin', lookin'
At your baby pictures, it trips me out to see how much
You both have grown, it's like you're sisters now

Wow, you pretty much are and daddy's still here
Laney, I'm to you too, daddy's still here
I like the sound of that, yeah, it's got a to it don't it?
Shh, only gone for the moment

Now little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I ya
Daddy's here to hold you the night

I mommy's not here right now
And we don't know why, we how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty
But I promise, momma's gon' be

And if you ask me to
gonna buy you a mockingbird, I'ma give you the world
I'ma buy a diamond for you, I'ma sing for you
do anything for you to see you smile

And if that mockingbird don't
And that ring don't shine, break that birdie's neck
I'd go back to the jeweler who it to ya
And make him eat every carat, don't with dad, ha ha
