lirik lagu kathy mar – shoulda
i should have been poor white trash,
but i had too much education.
i would have been a long-hair,
but it just refused to grow.
i could have been president,
but i had all the wrong relationships:
loose lips, juicy gossips, people i don’t know.
i should have been mother-of-the-year,
but i forgot which end to paddle.
i would have been a waitress,
but i didn’t hold my tongue.
i could have been a desert guide,
but i got bitten by a rattlesnake.
tough break, hope and heartache wasted on the young.
bridge: oh, rock me easy.
roll me like a wave.
rock my soul in the bosom of the sea;
there’s nothing left to save.
meet you on the other side of the grave.
i should have been diamond lil,
but i’m a second-hand attraction.
i would have learned my lessons,
but i never had the cl-ss.
i could have been poor white trash,
but i’m a renegade reactionary:
wary, slightly scary with a heart of gl-ss.
