|
"On Her Own" |
|
|
|
Good Old Alexandra |
|
Left her man last night |
|
Off to Louisiana |
|
New Orleans in sight |
|
Her determination went right down to her bone |
|
She is gonna make it on her own yea |
|
Always been a rambler |
|
Moving her whole life |
|
Daddy was a gambler with a heavyhearted wife |
|
The twilight wind blows her face |
|
And that bronco engine moans |
|
She is gonna make it on her own |
|
|
|
[Chorus:] |
|
That girl don't fake it |
|
Give her rules shell break it |
|
Shell love you on and on and shell be gone |
|
Shes gonna make it on her own |
|
Yea |
|
|
|
Shes on her own yea |
|
Mom lives down in Gretna working at the Oakwood mall |
|
Hasn't seen her Alex since Katrina conquered all |
|
She'll be in and out as fast as a hurricane is blown |
|
She is gunna make it on her own |
|
|
|
[Chorus] |
|
|
|
Babys on her own yea |
|
Go! |
|
Oh Alex |
|
I fantasize about a love she never had for me |
|
She wouldnt marry him cuz she just wants her liberty |
|
In 50 years I bet you'll see these |
|
Words on her grave stone |
|
"Heres a girl who made it on her own" |
|
|
|
[Chorus] |
|
|
|
She's gonna make it on her own |
