Stephenville TX

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Housewives trying to recapture their youth

By wearing floral print and suede

Fixing their hairdos with PC, chemical-free hairspray

Martha Stewart taught them to make on TV

I was raised a farmgirl

Now I'm too far from home, all alone on the road

Trying to figure out who I am now the the stardust has turned to sand

And the sand has turned to stone on the starmaking machine

I'm 31 years old

That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began

And my daddy, he wrote songs and he broke colts

And went back to school to get a degree

Now he teaches music to kids, he taught music to me

And this Alaskan girl is being living in Stephenville, Texas that is

Yes, you guessed it, I moved there 'cause I fell in love with a man

And I moved his ex-old lady's things out of the closet

The same closet I moved my things back in

No it did not make me feel that great, as if to demonstrate

Everything's temporary if you give it enough time

I'm 31 years old

That ain't the end, sure ain't where I began

But hey, I´m just a kid I've got nothing to lose

I'm a singer of songs, I'm a player for crowds

Hey Mom, look, I'm an entertainer

I'm a modern day troubadour trying to find justice with six strings

Trying to make the world make sense out of me

Trying to be loved completely, trying to love honestly

Trying to find a decent high-noon cup of tea

In another hotel

I'm trying to listen to the leaves speak

Trying to steal secrets from fishes in the creek

Trying to figure out who I am

A pretty mediocre cooker, and ever worse math mathition. maybe a mother one day

What will it be?

I'm trying to figure out who I am

But there's no hand to hold, no Doctor Martin Luther King

There's just syncophants

And the mindlessness on TV or in the magazines

On the latest ways to behave

So why not follow me, the blond bombshell deity

I'll sell you neat ideas without big words

And a little bit of cleavage to help wash it all down

You know, everybody thought Godar was a clown man

That ain't gonna be me

And I'm 31 years old

That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began

Guess that makes it Stephenville, Texas
