Intro
Verse
They say this town, the stars stay up all night, well I
Don't know, can't see 'em, for the glow of the neon lights
And it's a, long way from here to the place where the home fires burn
Well it's, two thousand miles and one left turn
Chorus
Dear Mom and Dad, Please send money.
I'm so broke it ain't funny
Well I don't need much just enough to get me through
Please don't worry, cause' I'm alright
See, I'm playin' here at the bar tonight
This time I'm gonna make our dreams come true
Well, I love you more than anything in the world
Love, your baby girl
Verse
Black top, blue sky, big town full of little white lies
Well, everybody's your friend you can never be sure
They'll promise fancy cars and diamond rings
All sorts of shiny things
Well, girl you'll remember what your knees are for
Chorus
Dear Mom and Dad, Please send money.
I'm so broke it ain't funny
Well I don't need much just enough to get me through
Please don't worry, cause' I'm alright
See, I'm playin' here at the bar tonight
This time I'm gonna make our dreams come true
Well, I love you more than anything in the world
Love, your baby girl
Bridge
I know that I'm on my way
Well I can tell everytime I play
And I know it's worth all the dues I pay
When I can write to you and say
Chorus
Dear Mom and Dad, I'll send money.
I'm so rich it ain't funny
Well it oughtta be more than enough to get you through
Please don't worry, Cause I'm alright
See I'm stayin' here at the Ritz tonight
Whatta ya know we made our dreams come true
And there are fancy cars and diamond rings
But you know that they don't mean a thing
They all add up to nothin compared to you
Well, remember me in ribbons and curls
I still love you more than anything in the world
Love, your baby girl
