[Verse 1]
Daddy was the local drunk
Momma was the loosest girl in town
Brother just some two-bit punk
Rode his Harley D. into the ground
Distant friends and relatives
Each of them a problem they would share
From the in-laws to the out-laws
Quietly she would soak up their despair
[Pre-Chorus]
She was one of life's lil' angels, a job that don't pay well
Guiding those to heaven that should've gone to hell
Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell...
[Chorus]
She was the brick at the base
Of the house, a true foundation stone
She was the color and the sound
And the taste and the rose of my cologne
[Verse 2]
Cousin Bobby killed a man
Packed his bags and left with Lisa Jane
Sister was an also-ran
Ran and never showed her face again
Daddy was the local drunk
Momma was the loosest girl in town
Brother just some two-bit punk
Rode his Harley D. into the ground
Distant friends and relatives
Each of them a problem they would share
From the in-laws to the out-laws
Quietly she would soak up their despair
[Pre-Chorus]
She was one of life's lil' angels, a job that don't pay well
Guiding those to heaven that should've gone to hell
Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell...
[Chorus]
She was the brick at the base
Of the house, a true foundation stone
She was the color and the sound
And the taste and the rose of my cologne
[Verse 2]
Cousin Bobby killed a man
Packed his bags and left with Lisa Jane
Sister was an also-ran
Ran and never showed her face again
