STORY SHE
MUSIC AND LYRICS WRITTEN BY NORMAN E. WILKERSON

She’s got a big gun loaded to kill.
She’s got a girlfriend itching to thrill.
She’s got a tight rope that keeps me still.
She’s got a fast car for a late night feel.

She’s got a sharp tongue, when she kisses goodbye.
She’s got the right drugs, to keep me alive.
She’s got a girlfriend that wonders why
She’s got a smile as I kiss the sky

Welcome to the voyage, a puppet on a string,
you’re just a wasted boy here; this isn’t your Hollywood dream.

She’s got a two face when she switches her mind.
She’s got a girlfriend that pulls out a knife.
She’s got a death rattle laying next to mine.
She’s got a pale face, as we sleep tonight.

She’s got a sharp tongue, when she kisses goodbye.
She’s got the right drugs, to keep me alive.
She’s got a girlfriend that wonders why.
She’s got a smile as I kiss the sky

Welcome to the voyage, a puppet on a string,
You're just a wasted boy here; this isn’t your Hollywood dream.

so illusions are grand when she dances you like fool
sex taste sweeter when you have everything to lose

She’s got a sharp tongue, when she kisses goodbye.
She’s got the right drugs, to keep me alive.
She’s got a girlfriend that wonders why.
She’s got a smile as I kiss the sky
