lyrics

She used to get choked up on a phone call
She used to be in by ten
She said, “Boy don’t get your hopes up I won’t fall
easy for most types of men.”

She used to push herself up to the front row
I guess she still does sometimes
And I still cringe when she throws up that elbow
But deep down you know I don’t mind
Deep down I think she’s so fine

There was Anne Marie and there was Hannah Lee
There was that girl with the crooked nose
Well, there was comin’ and a goin’
Wishin’ and a hopin’
That you’d be like none of those
(repeat)

She used to read from scripture on Sunday
She used to study the verse
She used to think no matter how much I pray
The politics has this place cursed

She used to look at the stars on her ceiling
And dream about who she might be
500 miles away I was feeling like a girl with a dream might be perfect for me

There was Anne Marie and there was Hannah Lee
There was that girl with the crooked nose
Well, there was comin’ and a goin’
Wishin’ and a hopin’
That you’d be like none of those
(repeat)
