    Story Behind the Song
    She's getting knocked around and the kid is next in line for a beating...She "says" we'll leave..never happens..The husband dies...driving drunk...the kid learns how to "not leave" APATHY is a learned behavior..
    and it hurts lots of people

    Wrote this in two or three days, recorded it on CakeWalk

    Lyrics
    STAY

    Verse: 1

    She told me how he drinks
    Knocked her to the floor
    Broke the kitchen door
    Same as last night

    Said She “bought a gun”
    Just in case he went
    A little crazy bent
    She’d put him in her sights

    If he got to mad
    Or tried to hurt the boy
    Knew it weren’t no toy
    But she just Stayed

    Pre-Ch/Chorus:

    Thought She’d walk out that door someday
    But it didn’t work out that way
    She’d always say….
    “I better just Stay”
    V2:

    She told me that one night
    We’d pack our things so fast
    Hit the interstate at last
    Cause she’s got no friends here

    They live far away
    But that was long ago
    Where they are she don’t know
    She got some kinda’ fear

    That there’s nothing left
    Of the town she knew
    What’s she gonna do?
    Bet she just Stays






    PrC/C:

    Thought She’d walk out that door someday
    But it didn’t work out that way
    She’d always say….
    “I better just Stay”
    Bridge:
    ‘Cuz I’m so scared
    to find out
    Where I made
    mistakes along the way
    Better just Stay
    Better just Stay


    V3

    She told me how I stood
    Alone at the door
    With the man in uniform,
    The old man had gone down

    Told me how my hands
    Trembled to the core
    A folded flag of war
    Was all…I ..had

    Thought I’d walk out that door someday
    But it didn’t work out that way
    I’d always say….
    “I better just Stay”
    Bridge:
    ‘Cuz I’m so scared
    to find out
    Where I made
    mistakes along the way
    Better just Stay
    Better just Stay
