She stepped off the bus out into the city streets
But you know you gotta stick to your guns
CHORUS:
Win big--Mama's fallen angel
Now she found herself in the fast lane
Such a good actress
CHORUS
To much to soon
LEAD
CHORUS OUT.....
<---BACK!
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
Then she ever thought they'd be
when it all comes down
Cause sometimes you can't choose
It's like heads they win
Tails you're gonna loose
Lose big--Livin' out her lies
Wants it all--Mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, Rollin' the dice of her life
Livin' day to day
Turned her back on her best friends, yeah
And watched her family slip away
Just like a lost soul
Caught up in the Hollywood scene
All the parties and the limousines
Hiding all her pain
Trading her memories for fortune and fame
Just a step away from the edge of a fall
Caught between heaven & hell
Where's the girl I knew a year ago
Or just a little to late
'Cause when her ship came in
She wasn't there and it just wouldn't wait
