Ashley Monroe - Mother's Daughter lyrics

She's gettin' older
You'd think that she'd be farther
If she were smarter
She'd turn the car around
She won't admit it
But when the tough gets harder
She's her mother's daughter
She's gonna let you down

Run away little Dixieland
Gone away is the steady hand
"Stayin' forever" is a promise
That nobody can keep
Fly away little Delta Rose
She finds love where'er she goes
"Stayin' forever" is the biggest
Lie she'll ever believe

When she was younger she was
More like her father faithful and stronger
She was the light in his eyes
And she'll deny it
But now that he's no longer
She's her mother's daughter
Until the day she dies

Run away little Dixieland
Gone away is the steady hand
"Stayin' forever" is a promise
That nobody can keep
Fly away little Delta Rose
She finds love where'er she goes
"Stayin' forever" is the biggest
Lie she'll ever believe

Run away little Dixieland
Gone away is the steady hand
"Stayin' forever" is a promise
That nobody can keep
Fly away little Delta Rose
She finds love where'er she goes
"Stayin' forever" is the biggest
Lie she'll ever believe
"Stayin' forever" is the biggest
Lie she'll ever believe
