ALLIE MAE, BLACK-EYED GIRL EVERYBODY KNOWS
FROM THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
YOU MAKE YOUR MONEY SELLING NEWSPAPERS
ON SUNDAYS YOU ALWAYS SPEND THE MOST
ON THE WINE
EVERY TIME
AND ALLIE MAE WENT TO SCHOOL
EVERYBODY'S GIRL TOLD THE JOKES, BROKE THE RULES
PRINCESS SMILE, SOME ARE GONE NOW
CURTSY FOR THE BOYS YOU CAN'T MARRY NOW
WHEN YOU'RE TWO STEPS CLOSER TO DEATH
AND YOU'RE ONE STEP CLOSER TO MY DOOR
STARS THEY SHINE ALL DAY
BUT AT MIDNIGHT THEY WON'T TURN TO ALLIE MAE
AND ALLIE MAE SLEEPS IN WATER PAINTS
THIS GIRL IS TOO DEEP TO BE OUT ON THE STREETS
WELL I REMEMBER THE CARD YOU WROTE TO ME IN SECOND GRADE
WAS IT VALENTINES DAY?
A HEART FOR TWO ON A LIFE LINE
WAS IT ME? WAS IT YOU?
AND ALLIE MAE IN HER LACED UP BOOTS
A JOHN IS ON THE PHONE, CIGARETTES, MASCARA BLUES
HOTEL ROOM, UNDERWATER BLINDS, PORNO ON THE TV, MOMMA'S LITTLE GIRL MAKE UP YOUR MIND
WHEN YOU'RE TWO STEPS CLOSER TO DEATH
AND YOU'RE ONE STEP CLOSER TO MY DOOR
STARS THEY SHINE ALL DAY
BUT AT MIDNIGHT THEY WON'T TURN TO
AT MIDNIGHT THEY WON'T TURN TO
AT MIDNIGHT THEY WON'T TURN TO ALLIE MAE
