about

Rough demo of our newest tune

lyrics

She was born in a trailer on the poor side of town
All the kids at school used to put her family down

When her father got hurt in a fall from a truck
Ever since that time they had nothing but bad luck

Oh Loretta, it's gonna get better
What more can a poor girl do
How can a poor girl get ahead
When the odds are stacked against the likes of me and you?

Old grandpa Willie was attached to his gin
When her momma left for work Willie'd dive right in.

The cops were always knocking at their front door
Her poor old mother couldn't take any more

Her dear old mother was nobody's fool
But she couldn't keep her kids from skipping out of school.

When her father walked out and left a pile of unpaid bills
Her mother escaped to her little blue pills

Oh Loretta, it's gotta get better
What more can a poor boy do
How can a poor boy get ahead
When the odds are stacked against the likes of me and you?
