When Casey Anthony was found not guilty in last week's final trial concerning the murder of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, people were in shock. Much of the country kept up with the 6-week trial, and felt justice was not served in the end. However, through the anger that erupted, a sadness for Caylee still emanates.
Rascal Flatts' lead singer, Gary LeVox, joined together with comedian Cledus T. Judd and songwriter Jimmy Yeary to write a song honoring the life of Caylee Anthony. The song is titled, "She's Going Places," and is sung by Shane Hines.
According to Cledus, the song is meant to bring the focus back on the little girl who lost her life, rather than the trial that is said and done.
Lyrics to "She's Going Places":
She was just a baby, barely two years old
A story that shouldn't have to be told
See that little girl with big brown eyes
Stole our hearts and touched our lives
Now we cry, 'cause we can't understand You see she wanted to learn to play guitar
Be a ballerina or movie star
She could've gone so far She can be anything that she wants to
She can ride her bike every afternoon
She can laugh and play
With her dolls and games
Just like all little girls should get to do
Too young for her life to be taken
She's going places I bet she'd spend her time skipping rope
Drawing rainbows on streets that are paved with gold
Get to ride a big wheel jumping curbs
In a parking lot of a great big church
And I wish I could see it all But her memory will live on right here
'Til I get over there
And see her again She can be anything that she wants to
She can ride her bike every afternoon
She can laugh and play in those backyard games
Just like all little girls should get to do
Too young for her life to be taken
She's going places She can play kickball
Go swim and see-saw
Just like all little girls should get to do We will sing sweet Caylee's praises
She's safe in the arms of God's good graces
She's going places
A story that shouldn't have to be told
See that little girl with big brown eyes
Stole our hearts and touched our lives
Now we cry, 'cause we can't understand You see she wanted to learn to play guitar
Be a ballerina or movie star
She could've gone so far She can be anything that she wants to
She can ride her bike every afternoon
She can laugh and play
With her dolls and games
Just like all little girls should get to do
Too young for her life to be taken
She's going places I bet she'd spend her time skipping rope
Drawing rainbows on streets that are paved with gold
Get to ride a big wheel jumping curbs
In a parking lot of a great big church
And I wish I could see it all But her memory will live on right here
'Til I get over there
And see her again She can be anything that she wants to
She can ride her bike every afternoon
She can laugh and play in those backyard games
Just like all little girls should get to do
Too young for her life to be taken
She's going places She can play kickball
Go swim and see-saw
Just like all little girls should get to do We will sing sweet Caylee's praises
She's safe in the arms of God's good graces
She's going places
