She Used To Be A Girl With A Future
Words & Music by Mick Brady
She’s not gonna hang around
To try and please someone
She’s out there on the road now
She’s out there having fun
She’s got herself a big ol’ Harley
She’s got her skirt above her knee
She’s revving up, she’s letting go
Determined that she’s gonna be free
She used to be a girl with a future
Now she’s a woman with a past
She coulda been a mover and a shaker
Now she’s moving on real fast
She’s older and she’s wiser
She’s got nothing left to prove
She’s been round the block a time or two
This lady’s paid her dues
She says that she’s not going grey
She’s says she’s silver blonde
She says that she don’t give a damn
Tomorrow she’s gonna be gone
There’s a time for taking chances
There’s a time when you play it cool
She knows she’s waited long enough
Now she’s got herself an attitude
