Girl Goin' Nowhere

Don't waste your life behind that guitar You may get goin', but you won't get far You're not the first, and 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 You're spinning your wheels and wasting your 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 cares" 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
