Lyrics
She?s a trailer girl, turned twenty one
Got four kids and she?s got a gun
In a funk ?cause she had it all
Now she?s headed for a great big fall
Was a princess, now she?s just a mess
She?s a victim of her own excess
She had too much too soon, too much too soon
Too much too soon, way too much too soon
Was a beauty as a child star
Made it fast and she made it far
She lost her fortune and she lost her mind
Left it all so far behind
Was a princess, now she?s just a mess
She?s a victim of her own success
She had too much too soon, too much too soon
Too much too soon, way too much too soon
She?s a trailer girl, turned twenty one,
Got four kids and she?s got a gun
In a funk ?cause she had it all
Now she?s headed for a great big fall
She had too much and she lost it all,
Had too much and she lost it all, lost it all?
