You know you brought your girl up well

So well that everyone can always tell

That you had some work to do

Thought she'd get the best of you

I'm glad that you never gave up on her

Shut the door or sent her away

You didnt know what else to say

But you loved her

You knew that she'd have to go

And told her all the things she never wanted to know

Because she already knew everything

Didn't she

And so you kicked her out into

The bright light

And of course it started a fight

But it would be the last

Because she's trying

She's trying

Trying hard to do what you taught her to

She's trying

She's trying

Trying hard to be what you want her to

You know you brought your girl up well

So well the day she came and told you she fell in love

And packed her bags

Smile didn't laugh

You sat her down and told her the rules of love

Watch your back and trust no one

And most of all just don't forget

To get a pre nup

And then when she went away

And came running back the very next day

You didn't tell her that you told her so

Even though you

Knew that she'd have to skin and break

Her own leg

And of course you feel it to

Pick her up it'd be enough

Because she's trying

She's trying

Trying hard to do what you taught her to

She's trying

She's trying

Trying hard to be what you want her to

You know you brought your girl up well

So well that even though she put you through hell

You'd figure it was worth it

Even though it wasnt perfect

I'm glad that you never gave up on her

Shut the door or sent her away

You didnt know what else to say

But you loved her

You knew that she'd have to go

And told her all the things she never wanted to know

Because she already knew everything

Didn't she

And so you kicked her out into

The bright light

And of course it started a fight

But it would be the last

Because she's trying

She's trying

Trying hard to do what you taught her to

She's trying

She's trying

Trying hard to be what you want her to
