Mick Brady: Lyrics

She Used To Be A Girl With A Future

She’s not gonna hang around

To try and please someone

She’s out there on the road now

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 could’ve 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
