She was only 17, and was every young boy's dream
The blue-eyed beauty queen of the day
She broke some hearts, including mine
But everyone knew, she was just that kind
And all her dreams were spent, on the boys that came and went
But the promises, were all they left
Oh, she was good, she was mine
But everyone knew, she was just that kind
You know they said, they're gonna take you out to Hollywood
Gonna make you like a movie star
They're gonna put you in a picture show
I took her chance
She paid her dime
And maybe I loved her
Cause she was that kind
She was gone by 21
When most lives have just begun
There was so much left undone
Along the way
Wasted life
Waste of time
Boy, you gotta be strong
Be that kind
You know they said
You're gonna take you out to Hollywood
Gonna make you like a movie star
And maybe put you in a picture show
Wasted life
Wasted time
But I couldn't have loved her
If she wasn't that kind
No, I couldn't have loved her



If she wasn't that kind
No, I couldn't have loved her
If she wasn't that kind
