Some girls are soft as a flower Some girls are like sweet tea But this girl is more like a vampire And sucked the blood from me And it took a long time to notice The fangs in this one's mouth And I should have seen it coming When she lied about being from the south That girl's own daddy thinks she's a puppet He told me once or twice And she sold her soul to the devil But the devil don't play nice Now the puppet thinks she's a rock star Lip singing my words all night Now there's nothing "rock star" about that But that sums her up just right Whеre I'm from, we call that a phony A body without a soul I guess it takеs one ghost to know one And that's what's so laughable (Ah) She was just a girl She was just a girl (Ah) I thought she was a woman, but she was just a girl She was just a girl This town's full of hopeless people Just starving for the fame Fake friends who become yes men Climb ladders like it's a game Well, this girl's got herself a posse Of some pretty little city bros Who think they're tough and come take my stuff But make sure that I'm not home She can keep all of my possessions She stole from our old home She can keep my cat and keep [?] too And keep guessing why she's alone She'd be wise to avoid Detroit And Texas too, at that 'Cause some friends of mine ain't happy And they all can smell a rat (Ah) She was just a girl She was just a girl (Ah) I thought she was a woman, but she was just a girl She was just a girl Thought she was an angel I thought she had a soul But she was just a devil That spun out of control I thought she had a backbone I thought she was the world I thought she was a woman But she was just a girl I thought she was an angel I thought she had a soul But she was just a devil That spun out of control I thought she had a backbone I thought she was the world I thought she was a woman But she was just a girl She was just a girl She was just a girl
