Got a call from my friend
|
She saw my picture again
|
In a magazine
|
We laughed out loud
|
'Cuz she said "Remember when..
|
This was all a silly dream??"
|
Now I wake up every day
|
In a different city
|
A smile on my face
|
Somebody pinch me
|
She said "all the world's a stage"
|
But girl you know,
|
Those cameras n lights won't ever change me
|
|
[chorus]
|
I don't drink champagne
|
when I'm back home with my friends
|
We sip on tea on the porch
|
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
|
No fancy things when I come off tour
|
I slip back into my jeans
|
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
|
|
It's amazin' to hear people singin' along
|
Hear the radio playin' my song
|
I still get butterflies
|
Still get nervous inside
|
In the spotlight
|
Now every now n then
|
On a Friday night
|
Cruisin' down to the dive bar
|
We waste the night away
|
Spend Saturday sleepin' in late
|
Those were the good days
|
|
[chorus]
|
I don't drink champagne
|
when I'm back home with my friends
|
We sip on tea on the porch
|
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
|
No fancy things when I come off tour
|
I slip back into my jeans
|
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
|
|
[outro]
|
And even when I'm miles away
|
I'll always have the roots from where I came
|
'Cuz when it all fades away
|
My home will still be the same, yeah eh yeah
|
|
I don't drink champagne
|
when I'm back home with my friends
|
We sip on tea on the porch
|
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
|
No fancy things when I come off tour
|
I slip back into my jeans
|
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
|
[repeat chorus add 2x to song fade out]
