Five Dollar Pearls

I know I'm wild, I tried to tame it
I'm not your style, I tried to change it
Was it crazy to take a chance on me
From the start was it never meant to be

I'm not straight enough to meet your mama
Not rich enough to meet your father
I'm not pure like a preacher's daughter
But I waded out, I washed my sins in the water

I've tried everything that I could see
To make you love a girl like me
I'm never gonna fit into your world
With my tattered jeans and five dollar pearls
Tattered jeans and five dollar pearls

Put on that dress and cut my hair
Tried to pretend that I'd belong there
Just a pretty face fading into the crowd
But we both know, I'm just a little too loud

And I've tried everything that I could see
To make you love a girl like me
I'm never gonna fit into your world
With my tattered jeans and five dollar pearls
Tattered jeans and five dollar pearls

I've tried every, every single thing
To make you love, love a girl like me

I've tried everything that I could see
To make you love a girl like me
I'm never gonna fit into your world
With my tattered jeans and five dollar pearls
Tattered jeans and five dollar pearls
