Has anyone heard that song by Martina McBride?? I can so relate to it mucho!

i've heard it before. only because my friends keep singing it. i'm not a country music person.

I don't think I've heard it. What's it about?

Its about a girl who was abused by her alcholic mother and then she later on dies and on her tombstone is an angel which is why its called Concrete Angel. Its not really that country reall at all but it is a good meaningful song.

Sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out.

i've never heard the real version. it's just that all my friends keep singing it and it's driving me insane. but i never say anything, cause they're all country luvers and i'm not.

Thats fine. It is a good song with a great meaning to it. I'm no country lover I just listen to all types of music. That be me

my friends all know me as the tomboy country hater, so if they knew i liked some country songs, i'd never live to see the end of it.

the classic country joke:

What happens when you play a country record backwards?
Your dog comes back, your truck ain't broken, and your wife still loves ya.

That's a great joke!

I know... I get a lot of jokes from my brother, but they're all racial (we're not racist, my brother always waits for those other people to come up with those jokes) or dirty. >< they're funny, but yah...

here are the lyrics. i used to listen to country music alot when i was younger

She walks to school with the lunch she packed
Nobody knows what she's holdin' back
Wearin' the same dress she wore yesterday
She hides the bruises with linen and lace

The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask
Bearing the burden of a secret storm
Sometimes she wishes she was never born

Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete angel

Somebody cries in the middle of the night
The neighbors hear, but they turn out the lights
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
When morning comes it'll be too late

[Repeat Chorus]

A statue stands in a shaded place
An angel girl with an upturned face
A name is written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world forgot
