Lyrics
SHE WAS HOMECOMING QUEEN
MILLION DOLLAR SMILE
VALEDICTORIAN
MAMA'S FAVORITE CHILD
BUT SHE LEFT 4 YEARS AGO
ON A GREYHOUND
HER MAMA CRIED WHEN SHE HEARD HER BABY GIRL
SAY I'M COMING HOME NOW
CHORUS
SHE LOOKS 40 YEARS OLD AT 22
SKIN AND BONES, TRACKS ALL COVERED IN TATTOOS
HER DADDY WOULD ROLL OVER IN HIS GRAVE
IF HE SAW HOW MUCH THAT SHE HAD CHANGED
BUT HER MAMA DIDNT SAY A THING
WHEN THE BUS PULLED IN FROM L.A.
HER DAUGHTER'S BACK WHERE SHE BELONGS
BUT SHE KNOWS...
HER BABY GIRL AINT COMING HOME
SHE WAS CHASING A DREAM
SHE NEVER FOUND
ENDED UP ON THE STREET
LOST WITH THE WRONG CROWD
HER MAMA DROVE HER TO BALLET HALF HER LIFE
TO DANCE FOR MEN FOUR TIMES HER AGE
JUST TO SURVIVE
CHORUS
SHE LOOKS 40 YEARS OLD AT 22
SKIN AND BONES, TRACKS ALL COVERED IN TATTOOS
HER DADDY WOULD ROLL OVER IN HIS GRAVE
IF HE SAW HOW MUCH THAT SHE HAD CHANGED
BUT HER MAMA DIDNT SAY A THING
WHEN THE BUS PULLED IN FROM L.A.
HER DAUGHTER'S BACK WHERE SHE BELONGS
BUT SHE KNOWS...
HER BABY GIRL AINT COMING HOME
