Wrong Way Round Lyrics by Rachel Baiman

2020

[Verse 1]
Pretty girl; rich family
Only ask her if it’s a filly
Little kid; nobody cared
So she learned to make ’em stare
Eleven years old when her parents split
While her daddy was drinking, her momma got hitched
Two a man down in Mexico
“Well pack your bags, honey, it’s off we go!”
[Corus]
When you’re born the wrong way round
To the wrong people, in the wrong town
You spend your lifetime traveling around
Looking for something that won’t let you down
[Verse 2]
While those revolution men, they partied all night
And nobody taught her to read or write
They took her for a God damn fool
They sent her to an Asheville finishing school
[Corus]
When you’re born the wrong way round
To the wrong people, in the wrong town
You spend your lifetime traveling around
Looking for something that won’t let you down
[Verse 3]
Sing the mother and the New York slow
She broke out screaming on the bus ride home
They took her away for to be controlled
Now she can’t stand eating dinner alone
[Corus]
When you’re born the wrong way round
To the wrong people, in the wrong town
You spend your lifetime traveling around
Looking for something that won’t let you down
[Verse 4]
When the city took her in
On the thirteenth floor; she could breathe again
And she had the biggest smile
When she held her first grandchild
