Being Born Was the Worse and the First Mistake I Ever MadeThe
Doctor Didn’t Spank Me, He Just Slapped Me in the FaceAnd the Cup
of Love Was Always Quenching Someone Else's ThirstLeaving Me
to Swallow the Bitter Taste of Hurt'cause I Was Raised An
OrphanNever Wanted As a Kid Until the Year I Turned 13Then
Everybody Did, Strangers Pass Me Back and ForthMen Just Took Me
As They PleasedAnd Others Had a Cinderella Slave to Cook and
Clean and WeepChorus:Though the Deck Is Stacked Against YouWin Or
Lose, You Have to PlayThe Hand a Life Has Dealt YouAnd It’s a
Gamble Either WayOn a Dust Road At 15 in a Yellow Cotton
DressWith the Desert Sun Like An Angry Dragon Breathing Down My
NeckAnd the Dry Cracked Plains Would Make Me Think of a
Prehistoric TimeOr Should I Fear What Lay Before Me Less Than
What I'd Left BehindA 15 Year Old Girl Don’t Have no Trouble
Hitching RidesBut Sometimes When You're Riding FreeYou’ll
Pay the Highest PriceOn Back Roads and in Back SeatsAnd in a
Cheap Highway MotelBut What’s a Few More Strangers in a Life of
Nothing ElseRepeat Chorus16 Caught Me Crying, Underneath the
Scarlet LightOn the Door Steps of a Stranger On a Cold and Rainy
NightWhen I Walked Into the Parlour HereOther Pieces Seemed to
FitI Was Good At Pleasing StrangersSo I Made the Most of ItEither
Way It’s All a GambleSo View the Stakes and Know the OddsAnd Lay
Your Cards Upon the TableDo All the Dealing From the TopRepeat
Chorus
