Fooled Me Once
My Mama died when I was sixteen She was shitfaced behind the wheel They made me go to the graveyard I would not pray or kneel I don't pray to no god who takes your Mama And leaves you in a house full of junk With a stepdad who gets all lovey dovey Every time that he gets a little drunk They fooled me once-I took it on the chin But I'll be damned if they fool me again Took off out of high school and joined the army People said that ain't no place for a girl People 'round here don't know what's going on I wanted to see the world All I saw was a hot flat field And a sergeant the size of a sow The only thing they taught me was how to run Well let's see 'em try to catch me now I met a guy and he talked real nice And he looked good down on his knees But now I'm the one who had the kid And the one that lost the car keys Now every time I fall in love Letras de cancionesI only fall so far Well they can have a piece of me But they shouldn't try to take my car So now I come dancing up to you Shaking 'em in your face If you got a dollar, fish it out And stick it in the right place I need some things the same as you And my expenses run high Soon as I pay off this guy I owe Me and my kid are gonna fly They fooled me once-I took it on the chin But I'll be damned if they fool me again From Letras Mania
