Ballroom Mama

Written by Nichole Robbins and Amee Chapman

Randy she never played it straight

Centerfolds in the preacher’s grace

Loved a fire eater  who poured  CuttySark

Loads her wagons with wigs at dark

       Ballroom Mama wont you show me the town?

       They say they saw you sneakin around

       Ballroom Mama don’t tell me those lies

       Caught you coverin your tracks

       Stepping on your cracks, dancing with your tutu on

Trucker’s mouth and playmate legs

Hitched herself cross the Golden Gate

Two weeks in the Portland cold

Knocked down knocked up headed home

Chorus

Bridge: Porcelain mornings and dead end nights

Twitches and visions no more lullabies

Wednesday worship and cardboard sleep

18 wheels and doublewide dreams

She something if nothing it’s nothing that she feels

Her minutes turn to hours and hours turn to years

Chorus
