Rodney Atkins - Diamonds lyrics

She said, "I've been up all night and half scared to d**h I can smell liquor on your breath I paid for your rehab with my IRA, boy Your daddy'd be turnin' in his grave" She said, "Son, I've done all a momma can do I save myself but I can't save you" He said, "I wish that you and Jesus would get offa my back They said his truck was doin' 90 when he crashed" I bet it gets so quiet in heaven sometimes Even God cries when an angels hands are tied They said, "Honey, grown-ups do this all the time" The tears welled up in the little girls eyes They said, "Now it's not something that you've done It's just that mommy and daddy don't get along" She said, "Do you guys mean that you need a time-out And that daddy's gonna move to a different house" They said, "You'll have two bedrooms you're a lucky kid" She said, "Well, what about Checkers, where's he gonna live" I bet it gets so quiet in heaven sometimes Even God cries when an angel's hands are tied She prays angels watch me through the night Stay by my side till morning light, God bless momma God bless daddy, keep us together and happy I bet it gets so quiet in heaven sometimes Even God cries when an angel's hands are tied
