Please Don't Drink and Drive

                                                                PLEASE DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE

The day before Mother's Day in 1983, my daddy, my mama my sister and me

Were on our way into town to buy a gift for mom

Little did we know this day the Lord for us would come

One minute I was in the car as happy as could be then I woke up soon after that with Jesus holding me

My mama was the only one the Lord allowed to live

He didn't take her home because she had so much to give

It was a senseless accident we didn't have to die

The family we left behind just wanted to know why

I can't begin to tell you what it's like up here.  Since we came we have not seen one person shed a tear

The Lord has given each of us a special job to do.  Daddy, me and Kristen are watching over you

I have a plea straight from my heart: Please don't drink and drive

If that man had used good judgement we would be alive

But Jesus said we must forgive and do not hold a grudge

Remember this my loved ones God alone will judge

So please be comforted by this; we are all ok and we're waiting here to welcome you on that final day
