I'm twelve years into a ten year town I'm too far in to turn around Too old to go back to school Won't be much longer, I'll be old news I thought I'd be a big star now I'm twelve years into a ten year town Fifteen minutes of fame Somebody says your name on the TV Or back of the CD Waitin' tables another month Waitin' on that break to come All it's ever done is break my heart The new It Girl fresh off the bus She cut right in front of the rest of us I need longer lashes and a shorter dress To be that overnight success I thought this year I'd wear that crown I'm twelve years into a ten year town Fifteen minutes of fame Somebody says your name on the TV Or back of the CD Waitin' tables another month Waitin' on that break to come SongtexteAll it's ever done is break my heart But I didn't come this far To only go this far Payin' dues don't pay the bills Dreams come true and I think mine will Lesser fools woulda given up They don't go for broke like a dreamer does Gotta get back up when you get knocked down I'm twelve years into a ten year town This next song could turn it all around I'm twelve years into a ten year town Aus Songtexte Mania
