Milly Raccoon lyrics to an old fiddle tune

lyrics

Last night while I lay fast asleep
Everybody I know
Reflected on my shortcomings
And switched from friend to foe

What’ll I do, where should I go
This test is multiple choice
I penciled every bubble in
And cannot find my voice

Since I don’t smoke and I don’t drink
All I do is long
For one true love, a stable home
In a world where I belong

They used to beat me up for always
Makin the highest grade
Now they just pretend a smile
and turn the other way

I’ve gotten away with never gettin
my shit together sooner
Cuz they see me as a little girl
Many years my junior

Once a day I want to die
But I’ll just decide to hide me
And pray I magically find
That girl I left behind me

Oh who’s that girl, that pretty little girl
That girl I left behind me
With the rosy cheeks and the curly hair
That girl I left behind me
