Answers: I believe it is a male singer talking about his wife not making it after she said it would be ok. She then went on to become an angel. I've only heard it once so I don't know many details about it. Thanks for any help.

Halfway to Hazard - Daisy

Her momma named her Daisy

Got it from a magazine

Through the mountains in her white dress

She'd run a chasin' me

Thought she was faster 'cause I told her so

Even though it wasn't quite the truth

Well, I know she's an angel even though she ain't got wings

'Cause my sweet Daisy loved the hell out of me



There in the back pew of a Sunday morning church

The preacher preachin' gospel, well, that's when I gave her

Her first kiss she told me so

Even though it wasn't quite the truth

Well, I know she's an angel even though she ain't got wings

'Cause my sweet Daisy loved the hell out of me



Chorus:

She gave me her body, she bared me her soul

Didn't ask for nothin'

She led me down to the river

She said, "You need to be baptized."

Held me under the moonlight

Lord, I don't know why

She loved the hell out of me



Eight years later, we got married

And the day her water broke

Well, doctor said, "There's complications but I still had hope."

She was gonna make it 'cause she told me so

Even though it wasn't quite the truth

Well, I know she's an angel and now she's got her wings

Yeah, my sweet Daisy loves the hell out of me



Repeat chorus



I thought I'd name her Daisy

In her momma's memory

Through the mountains in her white dress

She runs a chasin' me

Thinks she is faster 'cause I tell her so

Even though it isn't quite the truth

I think it was Tim McGraw from way back when (like before '06) with 'Don't Take the Girl' or something along those lines.

***I mean before '96!! I'm always getting my oughts and nineties mixed up!

There is Don't take the girl By Tim McGraw but it is towards the end of the song.
here is the music video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP1G5i5q-...

and the lyrics

Artist: McGraw Tim
Song: Don't Take The Girl
Album: Not A Moment Too Soon

Johnny's daddy was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old
A little girl came through the front gate holdin' a fishing pole
His dad looked down and smiled, said we can't leave her behind
Son I know you don't want her to go but someday you'll change your mind
And Johnny said "Take Jimmy Johnson, take Tommy Thompson, take my best friend Bo
Take anybody that you want as long as she don't go
Take any boy in the world
Daddy please don't take the girl

Same old boy
Same sweet girl
Ten years down the road
He held her tight and kissed her lips
In front of the picture show
Stranger came and pulled a gun
Grabbed her by the arm said "If you do what I tell you to, there won't be any harm"
And Johnny said "Take my money, take my wallet, take my credit cards
Here's the watch that my grandpa gave me
Here's the key to my car
Mister give it a whirl
But please don't take the girl

Same old boy
Same sweet girl
Five years down the road
There's going to be a little one and she says it's time to go
Doctor says the baby's fine but you'll have to leave
'Cause his momma's fading fast and Johnny hit his knees and there he prayed
Take the very breath you gave me
Take the heart from my chest
I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me
Make this my last request
Take me out of this world
God, please don't take the girl

Johnny's daddy
Was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old

try "Holes in the Floor of Heaven" by Colin Raye...the mother doesn't die in "Don't Take the Girl".

One day shy of eight years old,
When grandma passed away.
I was a broken hearted little boy,
Blowing out that birthday cake.
How I cried when the sky let go,
With a cold lonesome rain.
My mom smiled, said: "Don't be sad child.
"Grandma's watching you today."

"'Cos there's holes in the floor of Heaven,
"And her tears are pouring down.
"That's how you know she's watching,
"Wishing she could be here now.
"An' sometimes if you're lonely,
"Just remember she can see.
"There's holes in the floor of Heaven
"And she's watching over you and me."

Seasons come and seasons go,
Nothing stays the same.
I grew up, fell in love,
Met a girl who took my name.
Year by year, we made a life,
In this sleepy little town.
I thought we'd grow old together,
Lord, I sure do miss her now.

But there's holes in the floor of Heaven,
And her tears are pouring down.
That's how I know she's watching,
Wishing she could be here now.
An' sometimes when I'm lonely,
I remember she can see.
There's holes in the floor of Heaven,
And she's watching over you and me.

Well my little girl is 23,
I walk her down the aisle.
It's a shame her Mom can't be here now,
To see her lovely smile.
They throw the rice, I catch her eye,
As the rain starts coming down.
She takes my hand; says: "Daddy don't be sad,
'Cos I know Mama's watching now."

"And there's holes in the floor of Heaven
"And her tears are pouring down.
"That's how you know she's watching,
"Wishing she could be here now.
"An' sometimes when I'm lonely,
"I just remember she can see.
"Yes, there's holes in the floor of Heaven,
"And she's watching over you and me."

Might be that kinda new song Daisy. Oh and Steve Wariner(probably messed up the spelling) did the song Holes in the Floor of Heaven.
