Baby Girl Lyrics

Artist: Sugarland
Album: Twice the Speed of Life

They say in this town, stars stay up all night,
Well, I don€™t know, can€™t see €˜em for the glow of the neon lights.
An' it's a long way from here to the place where the home fires burn.
Well it's two thousand miles and one left turn.

"Dear Mom and Dad,
"Please send money: I€™m so broke that it ain€™t funny.
"Well, I don't need much; just enough to get me through.
"Please don€™t worry 'cause I'm all right,
"I€™m playin€™ here at the bar tonight.
"Well, this time, I€™m gonna make our dreams come true.
"Well, I love you more than anything in the world,
"Love,
"Your baby girl."

Black jack, blue sky: big town full of little white lies.
Well, everybody€™s your friend: you can never be sure.
They'll promise fancy cars an' diamond rings, an' all sorts of shiny things,
But, girl, you€™ll remember what your knees are for.

"Dear Mom and Dad,
"Please send money: I€™m so broke that it ain€™t funny.
"Well, I don't need much; just enough to get me through.
"Please don€™t worry 'cause I'm all right,
"See, I€™m playin€™ here at the bar tonight.
"Well, this time, I€™m gonna make our dreams come true.
"Well, I love you more than anything in the world,
"Love,
"Your baby girl."

I know that I€™m on my way.
Well, I can tell every time I play.
An' I know it€™s worth all the dues I pay,
When I can write to you and say:

"Dear Mom and Dad,
"I€™ll send money. I€™m so rich that it ain€™t funny.
"Well it oughtta be more than enough to get you through.
"Please don€™t worry 'cause I€™m all right,
"See, I€™m stayin€™ here at the Ritz tonight
"Whaddya know, we made our dreams come true.
"An' there are fancy cars an' diamond rings,
"But you know that they don't mean a thing.
"Well, they all add up to nothin' compared to you.
"Well, remember me in ribbons an' curls.
"I still love you more than anything in the world:
"Love,
"Your baby girl."

Ah yeah.

Your baby girl.
("Dear Mom and Dad,
("Please send money: I€™m so broke that it ain€™t funny.)
("Don't need much; just enough to get me through.)
Your baby girl.
("Please don€™t worry 'cause I'm all right,
("Playin€™ here at the bar tonight.)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh.)
Dreams come true.
