ONE MORE GIRL
Patty Griffin

I took off my iron smile

Because I found it weighed me down

Tomorrow when the world wakes up

I'll be in another town

You don't know what you want

At this moment you think it's me so you

Move your hand across my knee

Turn me into some novelty


Yes I'm one more girl on the stage

Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans

Just one more day that you don't find true love

No, you don't know what it means


Did you ever take the time to

Think about who I might be

Where I've been or

What I'm thinking or

Who I love or what I see

One more girl on the road that

You might pass on your way home

Someone's sister, someone's wife or

Just some bitch who's probably

Got no life and yes I'm


One more girl on the stage

Just one more ass that got stuffed into jeans

Just one more day that you don't find true love

No, you don't know what it means


One day we'll be a pile of ashes

For the best of time, it passes

So take your hand off my knee

Do you know what it means to be

One more girl on the stage

Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans

Just one more day that you don't find true love

No, you don't know what it means
