about

Another good reason for people not to get involved with songwriters. I’m still glad I got away!

lyrics

Worst Girl
Garrick Rawlings ©2002

She was good at making promises, and making me believe
If I hung in there a little longer, then I would retrieve
All the love I had given her, all the hopes and all the dreams But when it came right down to it
She was the worst girl I’d ever seen

She had a penchant to exaggerate, which tended to exacerbate Any anger I was feelin’, life used to be serene
But it’s my fault for not thinkin’ and for takin’ such a beating Oh, my eyesight, it did fail me, she’s the worst girl I’d ever seen Aye ah aye ah aye

Well her mom was kind of pretty, but I had to feed those goddam kitties I should of left them up that tall tree, where they might have let me be Oh, seein’ is believin’ no more cryin’ sad song singin’
All those tears they stopped today and I’m just glad I got away
I’m just glad I got away

Well I tried to do right by her, yeah I tried to conceive
A long and happy future, maybe a child there in-between
Thank god it never happened, my unborn child is safe
If she’d a had my baby, my whole family would’ve been disgraced Aye ah aye ah aye

Well the sex was pretty awful and travelin’ was a bitch
If I’d a wised up a little sooner, I’d a left her in a ditch
All her friends lived in a dog pound and her family was all jail bound And the interest in the incest was just a little bit obscene
Yeah, just a little bit obscene

Well this song it ain’t so pretty and the words are all kinda mean But I don’t know how else to say it, she’s the worst girl I’d ever seen Oh, seein’ is believin’ no more cryin’ sad song singin’ All those tears they stopped today and I’m just glad I got away
I’m just glad I got away
