You should have seen her with her head held high Now what do pretty girls do? She used to be the apple of his eye Now what do pretty girls do? She went through such a lot And never even learned That even pretty girls can get their fingers burned She's got a cabin in a town upon the border She gets in trouble with the local law and order Everybody's happy when she isn't at the door She sends out invitations to everyone They don't come (And the phone ain't ringing for her now) You should have seen her with her head held high Now what do pretty girls do? She used to be the same as me or you Now what do pretty girls do? Well they get older just like everybody else She never thought she'd have to take care of herself You should have seen her with her head held high Now what do pretty girls do? She used to be the apple of his eye Now what do pretty girls do? Collecting all the records and the posters Of the people that she knew And they knew That she'd get older just like everybody else She never thought she'd have to take care of herself
