Don´t waste your life behind that guitar You may get gone, but you won´t get far You´re not the first, you won´t be the last And you can tell us all about it when you come crawling back
That road you´re on, just winds and winds Your spinning your wheels and wasting you´re time
But when the lights come up And I hear the band And where they said I´d never be is exactly where I am I hear the crowd I look around And I can´t find an empty chair Not bad for a girl goin´ nowhere
I get these calls, out on the road Heard your song on my radio We always said you´d make it big And I tell all my friends, I knew you back when So don´t forget all us little folks And when you crash and burn
Remember we told you so
And then the lights come up And I hear the band And where they said I´d never be is exactly where I am I hear the crowd I look around And I can´t find one empty chair Not bad for a girl goin´ nowhere
I need to thank my daddy For that first set of strings And all those folks who swore I´d never be anything It took a whole lot of yes I wills and I don´t care A whole lot of basement dives and county fairs
To this show right now and y´all sure look good out there Not bad for a girl goin´ nowhere Not bad for a girl goin´ nowhere
