Lyrics
No Turning Back
.
.
She tells her daddy what he wants to hear
Under his roof she lives a life of fear
He fights with her mamma, bout every night
No matter how wrong he always right
When he aint drinkin' he's a real nice guy
And that's enough to make her wanna cry
Tomorrow she's leavin' she's gonna be eighteen
She'll run off and marry Larry Dean
.
There aint no turning' back now
She knows what she wants
It may take some time, it's an uphill climb
To get where she belongs
Her right eye is black, Larry's hand is red
She aint talkin' she just stares ahead
He counts up the empties, there's 21
He can't remember what he knows he done
He say's it's your fault girl watch what you say
Her mind is racing planning her escape
She don't have much money, but she has faith
She's turned the corner and she's on her way
.
There aint no turning' back now
She knows what she wants
It may take some time, it's an uphill climb
To get where she belongs
Her little girl is three years old
And she has her mammas eyes
She hears em' fight, almost every night
And it makes her wanna cry
(And that is why)
There aint no turning' back now
Tomorrow they'll be gone... .
It may take some time, it's an uphill climb
To get where they belong
