We Don't Have To Pay Lyrics - Chalee Tennison

(Chalee Tennison/Dale Dodson/Billy Lawson) 

Her little heart beats so fast 

You can almost hear it breaking down the hall 

As we fight the final round 

Sounds like we're tearing down the walls 

He packs a bag,screams goodbye 

I yell wait, as he walks out the door 

Then from the lips of a child I found wisdom 

That I've never heard before 

She said, Momma let him go 

We don't have to pray about that anymore 

Momma, pull yourself together, we've all survived the war 

She said, Mommalet him go 

We don't have to pray about that anymore 

That one's been answered, amen, praise the Lord 

Yesterday, she was a baby in my arms 

Now just look at her, holding me together 

As I fall apart 

It turned out that the best for her 

Wound up to be the best for me 

Guess you never get too old to learn 

And you can't be too young to teach
