Car Ports And Trailer Doors
In my school there was a girl named Mary Catherine who
Made us all sound like fools without even trying to
Her parents were poor but she was rich in brilliance and beauty
We knew she was bound for more than this in Johnson County
She got pregnant hung around home no fault of her own
He threw a fit and then you know he split
She was a parent alone
Livin' in a trailer next to Ma
She planned her break and escape
Community college was her start on to Duke for her CNA
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll know more than what for
These car ports and trailer doors
Valedictorian of her class without even trying to
Looking back on her older life
Who was she lying to
Got a full time residency right out of medical school
Her baby daddy saw her on TV
Now he's crying too
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She speaks at graduation day at her old high school
Tells them to find their own way
Yeah, they're gonna make it too
The world is bigger than you think
Than dirt roads and dead ends
I now pass this off to you listen well my friends
You'll go far if you shoot for the stars
You'll go far if you shoot for the stars
You'll know more than what for
These car ports and trailer doors
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll know more than what for
These car ports and trailer doors
Made us all sound like fools without even trying to
Her parents were poor but she was rich in brilliance and beauty
We knew she was bound for more than this in Johnson County
She got pregnant hung around home no fault of her own
He threw a fit and then you know he split
She was a parent alone
Livin' in a trailer next to Ma
She planned her break and escape
Community college was her start on to Duke for her CNA
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll know more than what for
These car ports and trailer doors
Valedictorian of her class without even trying to
Looking back on her older life
Who was she lying to
Got a full time residency right out of medical school
Her baby daddy saw her on TV
Now he's crying too
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She speaks at graduation day at her old high school
Tells them to find their own way
Yeah, they're gonna make it too
The world is bigger than you think
Than dirt roads and dead ends
I now pass this off to you listen well my friends
You'll go far if you shoot for the stars
You'll go far if you shoot for the stars
You'll know more than what for
These car ports and trailer doors
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll go far if she shoots for the stars
She'll know more than what for
These car ports and trailer doors
