[00:00.51]Homecoming Queen - Sheryl Crow
[00:03.32].
[00:14.76]28, shouldn’t look this old
[00:17.32]But the last ten years sure took their toll
[00:20.77]On the girl in the picture with the plastic crown
[00:24.40]That sea queen dress wouldn’t fit her now
[00:28.15]Like it did
[00:31.57]Before the kids
[00:33.63].
[00:34.82]Yea she loves her husband ‘cause she said she would
[00:38.20]Oh it ain’t so good but it ain’t so good
[00:41.76]She swore she wouldn’t get stuck in this town
[00:45.20]Now she’s cutting coupons two doors down
[00:48.70]From a mall
[00:52.32]And it goes on
[00:54.51].
[00:55.70]Yea too bad love ain’t a local parade
[00:59.32]In your uncle’s Corvette on a Saturday
[01:02.70]With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
[01:06.26]When you’re 17
[01:09.07]You don’t know
[01:11.38]That you won’t always be
[01:15.57]Homecoming queen
[01:19.58].
[01:23.73]Newspaper clipping and a stash in a box
[01:27.11]Are the only things that didn’t get lost
[01:30.39]She married a guy on the real estate sign
[01:33.82]And it’s hard to believe once upon a time
[01:37.34]She was royalty
[01:40.34]The girl we all wanted to be
[01:43.54].
[01:44.54]Yea too bad love ain’t a local parade
[01:47.86]In your uncle’s Corvette on a Saturday
[01:51.18]With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
[01:54.81]When you’re 17
[01:57.46]You don’t know
[02:00.15]That you won’t always be
[02:04.12]Homecoming queen
[02:06.62].
[02:07.12]Or the captain of the team
[02:10.21]And it ain’t what it seems
[02:13.85]It’s just a teenage dream
[02:18.60].
[02:33.49]Too bad love ain’t a local parade
[02:36.43]In your uncle’s Corvette on a Saturday
[02:39.81]With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
[02:43.37]When you’re 17
[02:46.12]You don’t know
[02:48.87]You won’t always be
[02:53.24]You don’t know
[02:55.81]You won’t always be
[02:59.87]Homecoming queen
[03:02.90]
