Princess cards

egards,
Oh, bar-room e
yes shine vaca
ncy to see her
you gotta loo
k hard
Wounded deep i
n battle, I st
and stuffed li
ke some soldie
r undaunted
To her cheshir
e smile I'll s
tand on file,
she's all I ev
er wanted
You let your b
lue walls get
in the way of
these facts, h
oney
Get your c
/
arpet baggers
off my back
Girl give me t
/
ime to cover m
y tracks
You said, "H
ere's your mir
ror and your b
all and jacks"
But they're no
t what I came
for
Oh I came for
so much more
And I know you
know that too
And I know you
know that's t
rue (I came fo
r you)
I came for y
ou
I came for y

Crawl into my
ambulance, you

ting weak
Reveal yoursel
f all to me no

ngth to speak
'Cause they're
waiting for y

with thei
r oxygen masks
But I could gi
ve it all to y

k
Don't call for
your surgeon

t's late
It's not your
lungs this tim
e but your hea

Don't give me
my money back,

anymore
It's not that
nursery mouth

tched out on t
he floor
I've broken al
l your windows
and I've ramm
ed through all
your doors
Who am I to as
