Lyrics Loretta Lynn

Loretta Lynn

Family Tree

Woman you don't know me

But you can bet that I know you

Everybody in this whole darn town

Knows you too.

I brought along our little babies

'Cause I wanted them to see

The woman that's burning down

Our family tree.

No, I didn't come to fight

If he was a better man I might

But I wouldn't dirty my hands

On trash like you, no.

Bring out the babies, daddy

That's who they've come to see

Not the woman that's burning down

Our family tree

Their daddy once was a good man

Until he ran into trash like you

Take a look at baby's face

And tell me who loves who.

I brought along his ole dog Charlie

And the bills that's overdue

The job your workin'

Lord, we need money too.

No, I didn't come to fight

If he was a better man I might

But I wouldn't dirty my hands

On trash like you, no.

Bring out the babies, daddy

That's who they've come to see

Not the woman that's burning down

Our family tree.

No, not the woman that's burning down

Our family tree...
