Loretta Lynn - For Heaven's Sake lyrics

We thought the baby was the answer To keep us happy in our world Our prayers were answered with the darling baby girl And we named her Heaven, but a child's not all it takes But I'll stay and I'll stay for heaven's sake. You often send me roses and kiss me when you leave home And you pick out my shirt and tie like nothing's ever wrong But we're only fooling Heaven, we can't make a mistake I won't leave you, I'll see it through for Heaven's sake. Christmas trees and make believe for Heaven's sake Ginger mint and let's pretent if that's what it takes Evening prayers and pigtails, Teddy bears and wishing wells for Heaven's sake. Rollerskates and skinned up knee and dirty face I kiss her hurt until her tears are all erased Baby dolls and your high heels Lollipops before her meal for Heaven's sake...
