The song was from the veiw point of the female singing it. It was about her leaving her abusive husband with her small baby maybe infant to toddler in the back seat. It talked about having everything thing they owned in the car with them. I know one of the phrases went : "I don't know what I would do if he ever hit you". The title of the song could be the childs name. It was a female child. I know I've heard it play on the radio within the last 5 years.

I think you are talking about "Me and Emily" by Rachel Proctor.
Here are the lyrics:
Floorboard's filled with baby toys,
An' empty coke bottles an' coffee cups.
Drivin' through the rain with no radio,
Tryin' not to wake her up.
Cell 'phone says "low battery",
God, what if I break down?
I'm just lookin' for an exit with a lotta lights,
A safe little interstate town.
Just a cheap hotel,
With a single bed,
And cable TV:
Is good enough for me an' Emily.
Some day, when she's old enough,
She's gonna start askin' questions about him.
Some kid at school brings his Dad for show an' tell,
An' gets her little mind a-wonderin':
"Where's my Daddy? Do I have one?
"Does he not love me like you do?"
Oh, maybe I'll find someone to love the both of us,
Tell her when she's old enough to know the truth.
Will it break her heart?
Will she understand,
That I had to leave?
That's what was best for me an' Emily.
The house was never clean enough; his dinner never warm enough.
Nothing I did was ever good enough to make him happy.
So, I guess, he gave me what he thought I deserved,
But it would kill me if he ever raised his hand to her.
Big rigs are throwin' rain on my windshield,
An' I feel like they're laughin' at me.
Fin'lly the storm is lettin' up,
An' the mornin' is breakin' free.
It's a brand new day,
It's a second chance.
Yesterday is just a memory,
For me an' Emily.
Floorboard is filled with baby toys,
An' empty coke bottles an' coffee cups.
Least there's one good thing that he gave me,
An' she's startin' to wake up.
Its a great song, one of my favorites! Hope this helps!

Jesus take the wheel?
Carrie Underwood beautiful song
It was about she had her baby girl in the back seat, had a wreck and was saved.
Fighting with her husband.

"Me and Emily" Rachel Proctor
You are correct, it is a country song. I believe it came out in 2004.

any idea on the singer? sounds like a subject that kathy mattea, reba, or martina mcbride would do... other than that, i don't know. reba did one called "fancy" where the mother was abused and left the daughter very young with a brothel...?
