If she wants to dance and drink all night,
Well there’s no one that can stop her
She’s going until the house lights come
Up or her stomach spills onto the floor
This night is gonna end when
We’re damn well ready for it to be over
Worked all week long now
The music is playing on our time
We do what we do to get by,
And then we need a release
You get mixed up with the wrong guys
You get messed up on the wrong drugs
Sometimes the party takes you places
That you didn’t really plan on going
When people see the track marks on her
Arms she knows what they’re thinking
She keeps on working for that minimum,
As if a high school education gave
You any other options, you know
They don’t know nothing about redemption
They don’t know nothing about recovery
Some people just aren't the type
For marriage and family
No mother ever dreams that her daughters
Going to grow up to be a junkie
No mother ever dreams that her daughters
Going to grow up to sleep alone [2x]
She’s out of step with the style
She don’t know where the actions happening
You know the downtown club scene
Ain't nothing like it used to be
You reach a point where there’s not a lie in the world
That you could use to make the boys
Believe you're still in you twenties
But they keep getting younger, don't they baby?
She’s not waiting for someone
To come over and ask for the privilege
She can still hear that Rebel Yell just
As loud as it was in 1983, you know
There ain't no Johnny coming home to
Share a bed with her and she doesn’t care
No mother ever dreams that her daughters
Going to grow up to be a junkie
No mother ever dreams that her daughters
Going to grow up to sleep alone [2x]
No mother ever dreams that her daughters
Going to grow up to be a junkie
And if she had to live it all over again
You know she wouldn’t change anything for the world
