Collin Raye - The Eleventh Commandment Lyrics
She hears his heavy breathing in the darkHis footsteps coming closer down the hallShes so ashamed, shes daddys secret loveShe wants to cry, she wants to die, but he cant get enoughThe bruises on his face will go awayMom keeps him home from school till they fadeShes sorry he was born and tells him soHe takes it in, he hangs his chin, he ducks another blowDid God overlook itWhat ought have been writtenThe eleventh commandmentHonor thy childrenHe cries for hours, cries and never stopsHe shakes so hard his little cradle rocksHell never have the chance to be brand newHell never walk, hell never talk, hes addicted tooDid God overlook itWhat ought have been writtenThe eleventh commandmentHonor thy childrenThou shalt not killThou shalt not stealThou shalt not take the lords name in vainThou shalt not cause thy children painGod does not overlook itWhat ought have been writtenThe eleventh commandmentHonor thy childrenHonor thy children
