7 years old everything was right
Table for 4 on a Friday night
Didn't see any signs of a dead end road
By the time I was 10 everything was changing
Fell asleep every night praying
Didn't know which way to go
Momma did her best to hide her anger
And I did my best to try and save her
I was a little too young and a little too dumb
To ever think the day would come
When dad would drive away
And take his love with him
So I grew up fast in a whole new world
Waved goodbye to that little girl
I can see her now innocent and 7
I wish I had never turned 11
We moved into a smaller house
How momma did it all I don't know how
Never went to bed without eating
At 13 I finally realized what it meant to get on with your life
But daddy sure did and he made it look easy
Momma did her best to hide the struggles and I did my best to stay out of trouble
I was a little too young and a little too dumb
To ever think the day would come
When dad would drive away
And take his love with him
So I grew up fast in a whole new world
Waved goodbye to that little girl
I can see her now innocent and 7
I wish I had never turned 11
I wish that I could turn back time
And tell myself it'll be alright
You're never gonna lose the light in your eyes
I was a little too young and a little too dumb
To ever think the day would come
When dad would drive away
And take his love with him
So I grew up fast in a whole new world
Waved goodbye to that little girl
I can see her now innocent and 7
I wish I had never turned 11
I wish I had never turned 11
I wish I had never turned 11
I wish I had never turned 11
