| Tiny hands on a lipstick case
|
| I’d watch my mama paint her face
|
| Just like she did every day
|
| And I’d watch her wipe the tears away
|
| My daddy, he’d go off to work
|
| Yeah, almost like he wasn’t rehearsed
|
| From time to time he’d twirl me round
|
| But he always let my mama down
|
| I learned early and I learned hard
|
| What to do when love leaves scars
|
| You just stay pretty
|
| Then if you feel ugly in that heart, don’t worry
|
| Mary Kay & Maybelline covers up everything
|
| Well, you grow up and you take his hand
|
| Put all your trust in that man
|
| Till you find some pain of your own
|
| And you touch it up with he ain’t home
|
| I learned early and I learned hard
|
| What to do when love leaves scars
|
| You just stay pretty
|
| Then if you feel ugly in that heart, don’t worry
|
| Mary Kay & Maybelline covers up everything
|
| Mary Kay & Maybelline covers up everything
|
| Well, you make a choice 'cause you gotta choose
|
| When it comes down to him or you
|
| I wouldn’t go digging up the truth
|
| 'Cause a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do
|
| I learned early and I learned hard
|
| What to do when love leaves scars
|
| You just stay pretty
|
| Then if you feel ugly in that heart, don’t worry
|
| Mary Kay & Maybelline covers up everything
|
