That new tattoo still stung just a little
|
The old guy said "Well, what do you think?
|
Is this what you wanted?
|
Just the word 'freedom'
|
Surrounded by eagles' wings"
|
He said "It's none of my business,
|
But who is this angel,
|
That you had me cover up?"
|
I said "Oh, that's just a name,
|
It still makes me think of a girl I used to love"
|
|
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now
|
I bet she's covered in diamonds, that car that she's driving
|
Cost more than most people's house.
|
She used to say how she wanted babies and I was too young to slow down
|
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now.
|
|
We used to sit on the hood of my old blue Camaro and watch the sun come up
|
Stare out across that big sleepy desert, like the whole world revolved us
|
And I hope she'd smile if she knew right now, that I was talking like this
|
But she's out there somewhere, makin' somebody happy, wherever she is
|
|
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now
|
I bet she's covered in diamonds, that car that she's driving
|
Cost more than most people's house.
|
She used to say how she wanted babies and I was too young to slow down
|
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now.
|
|
I don't know where she is,
|
I'm glad I don't know where she lives,
|
Cause one day I just might show up at her door.
|
|
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now
|
I bet she's covered in diamonds, that car that she's driving
|
Cost more than most people's house.
|
She used to say how she wanted babies and I was too young to slow down
|
But I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now.
|
Oh, I figured she's probably somebody's mama by now.
