She Ain’t My Blood But She’s My Girl (TikTok Version)
The Song on Tik Tok that underlys these one minute experiences. Some times the Step-Father played this for his Step-Daughter for the first time. On others, the step-daughter played it for the Step-Father for the first time. The song writer starts out this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gfjsgr4lK8M
In a three stick figure crayon picture with all of us holding hands
She ain't my blood, ain't got my name
But if she did I'd feel the same.
I wasn't there for her first steps
But I ain't missed a ball game yet.
And that ain't ever gonna change.
I could never walk away.
Yes she's my own and that's my choice
She ain't my blood but she's mine,
She's my girl.
Elvie Shane Lyrics
She's My Girl (Complete Lyrics)
She ain't got my smile, that don't bother me a bit
She's got somebody else's eyes I'm seeing myself in
I'm holding on to every moment, God knows I've missed a few
The day we met I knew I had some catching up to do
She ain't my blood, ain't got my name
But if she did, I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for her first steps
But I ain't missed the ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah, she's my baby my whole world
She ain't my blood but she's my, she's my girl
It hit me like a train, the first time she called me dad
In a three stick figure crayon picture with all of us holding hands
Her mama said, "I understand if it's too soon for this"
I didn't let her finish, I took it to the kitchen and I stuck it on the fridge, yeah
She ain't my blood, ain't got my name
But if she did, I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for her first steps
But I ain't missed the ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah, she's my baby and my whole world
She ain't my blood but she's my, she's my girl
She's Saturday morning cartoons
She's "Hey, can I sleep in your room?"
She's bigger than the plans I had
She's making me a better man
She ain't my blood, ain't got my name
But if she did, I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for her first steps
But I ain't missed the ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah, she's my baby and my whole world
She ain't my blood but she's my, she's my girl
Yeah, she's my, she's my girl.
At 3:47, the step-daughter showed the following cue cards to the viewers during the playing of this song.
I want to say thank you to my biological father.
You knew you didn't want me.
You knew you weren't going to be the man that I NEEDED or DESERVED
You never tried to contact me or send me a card on my birthday.
I never waited for a phone call or letter from you. I never wondered if you were going to show.
Because of you I was CHOSEN.
Chosen by a man when I was 3 years old. By a man who wanted to be MY DAD.
A man who wanted to be there for EVERYTHING.
A man who wanted to teach me how to ride a bike, be a strong and independent person
and how to be a good parent to my son
Because you didn't want me, I had an amazing dad and I am grateful for you being ABSENT.
A dad is not someone who gives you their DNA but it is a man who is present & there, even when times aare tough
THANK-YOU to the man who left me AND to the one who choose to LOVE ME

General Norman Schwarzkopf commanded Operation Desert Storm, successfully driving out Saddam Hussein's Iraqi forces from Kuwait in 1991.
At another time he said, "Crying is a sign of strength. Never trust a man who doesn't cry.:"
See in the following the hidden side of what I call A Man's Man, a man who engages in activities that are traditionally viewed as masculine, and who earns the respect of other men. Such men may also be described as “manly,” emphasizing their masculine personality. Dec 22, 2022

It takes a strong man to accept somebody else's children and step
up to the plate another man left on the table.
