Trace Adkins - She's Still There lyrics

Darlin' here's a photograph of my old high school class

No I ain't been back in quite a while

See there that's Emma Lou, the one I gave my heart to

But there's a story you can't see behind her smile

It was gonna last forever, we were gonna see the world

So I guess you're curious just what became of her, well

She's still there in Oklahoma

She's still seventeen

She's livin' with her Mama

Workin' at the Dairy Queen

And she's still standin' on the front porch

With a red ribbon in her hair

The rest of us have scattered everywhere

But she's still there

Everett went to Omaha, he majored in business law

Jill's in Arkansas with husband number two

That's her best friend Jolene, she joined up with the Marines

I hear Billy Green's on a beach in Malibu

Yes and Emma would be happy if she could only see us now

'Cause we're livin' out the lives that she only dreamed about

She's still there in Oklahoma

And she's still seventeen

She's livin' with her Mama

Workin' at the Dairy Queen

And she's still standin' on the front porch

With a red ribbon in her hair

The rest of us have scattered everywhere

But she's still there

Lord, I know I'll never see her

With silver in her hair

I know she's really gone

But in my heart I'd swear

But she's still there in Oklahoma

She's still seventeen

She's livin' with her Mama

Workin' at the Dairy Queen

And she's still standin' on the front porch

With a red ribbon in her hair

The rest of us have scattered everywhere

But she's still there

Emma's still there
