lyrics

Tougher than the tough guys
but look at how she combs her hair
moonshine in her dark eyes
looking like she doesn’t care

smoking like a sailor
drinking like lumberjack
mama always failed her
daddy’s never coming back
coming back

Remember when you came here the first time
you sat down right in front of me
the teacher taught astronomy
I knew I was in trouble when I didn’t hear a sound
You came here the first time
beaten small and broken down
didn’t dare to look around
I knew I was in trouble yeah I knew that I was going down

All the girls have boyfriends
boyfriends that you never see
I don’t have a girlfriend
no one really talks to me

two years since I saw her
came here from the nearest town
she’s a drinkers daughter
all her life they’ve moved around
moved around

Remember when you came here the first time
you sat down right in front of me
the teacher taught astronomy
I knew I was in trouble when I didn’t hear a sound
You came here the first time
beaten small and broken down
didn’t dare to look around
I knew I was in trouble yeah I knew that I’s going down when you
came here the first time
you sat down right in front of me
the teacher taught astronomy
I knew I was in trouble when I didn’t hear a sound
You came here the first time
beaten small and broken down
didn’t dare to look around
I knew I was in trouble yeah I knew that I was going down
