| She stepped off the bus out into the city streets
|
| Just a small town girl with her whole life
|
| Packed in a suitcase by her feet
|
| But somehow the lights didn’t shine
|
| As bright as they did on her mama’s TV screen
|
| And the work seemed harder and the days seemed longer
|
| Than she ever thought they’d be
|
| But you know you got to stick to your guns
|
| When it all comes down
|
| 'Cause sometimes you can’t choose
|
| It’s like heads they win and tails you’re gonna lose
|
| Win big, mama’s fallen angel
|
| Lose big, livin' out her lies
|
| Wants it all, mama’s fallen angel
|
| Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life
|
| Now she found herself in the fast lane livin' day to day
|
| Turned her back on her best friends, yeah
|
| And let her family slip away
|
| Just like a lost soul caught up in the Hollywood scene
|
| All the parties and the limousines
|
| Such a good actress hiding all of her pain
|
| Trading memories for fortune and fame
|
| Just a step away from the edge of a fall
|
| Caught between heaven and hell
|
| Where’s the girl I knew a year ago?
|
| Win big, mama’s fallen angel
|
| Lose big, livin' out her lies
|
| Wants it all, mama’s fallen angel
|
| Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life
|
| Too much too soon or just a little too late
|
| 'Cause when her ship came in
|
| She wasn’t there and it just wouldn’t wait
|
| Win big, mama’s fallen angel
|
| Lose big, livin' out her lies
|
| Wants it all, mama’s fallen angel
|
| Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life
|
| Win big, mama’s fallen angel
|
| Lose big, livin' out her lies
|
| Wants it all, mama’s fallen angel
|
| Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life |
