John Michael Montgomery - Alyssa Lies lyrics

rate me

my little girl met a new friend just the other day on the playground at

school between the tires and swings but she came home with tear filled eyes

and she said to me daddy Alyssa lies well i just brushed it off at first

cuz i didn't now how much my little girl had been hurt or the things she

had seen i wasn't ready when i said you can tell me and she said Alyssa

lies to the classroom Alyssa lies everyday at school Alyssa lies to the

teachers as she tries to cover every bruise My little girl layed her down

that night to go to sleep as i stepped out the room i heard her say a

prayer so soft and sweet god bless my mom and my dad and my new friend

Alyssa i know she needs you bad because Alyssa lies to the classroom Alyssa

lies everyday at school Alyssa lies to the teachers as she tries to cover

every bruise i had the worst night of sleep in years as i tried to think of

a way to calm her fears i knew just what it was i had to do but when we got

to school on Monday i heard the news my little girl asked me why everybody

looked so sad the lump in my throat grew bigger with every question that

she asked until i felt the tears run down my face and i told her Alyssa

wouldn't be at school today cuz she doesn't lie in the classroom she

doesn't lie anymore at school. Alyssa lies with Jesus because there was

nothing anyone would do tears filled my eyes when my little girl asked me

why Alyssa lies daddy tell me why Alyssa lies
