Perfect World Lyrics

Well daddy never liked me much,

Said I was a leaving kind.

Said I was out of touch

Said I’d Always be a step behind.

He knew that he was out of luck when I pulled up in my truck

His angel was a small girl.

The belle of the social scene.

I was from a different world,

Busted knuckles and gasoline.

But the warrants didn’t mount to much, when I pulled up in my truck

We all want a perfect world.

Just call it by a different name.

Cut us and we all bleed,

broken hearts all feel the same,

Both sides of the tracks some things you can’t take back

I asked him for his daughters hand,

but he wouldn’t look me in the eye,

Said she’d never have my name,

Said he didn’t need a reason why.

He said that he’d heard enough then he showed me to my truck

No matter how hard you try,

or pray to the Lord above,

You can’t unmake a child or force a father to love,

We knew that it was gonna be tough but we drove home in my truck.

We all want a perfect world.

Just call it by a different name.

Cut us and we all bleed, broken hearts all feel the same,

Both sides of the tracks some things you can’t take back

All that it did was ring,

When I called on the telephone,

When I pulled into the drive not a single light was on

I knew that I was out of luck when I pulled up in my truck

We all want a perfect world.

Just call it by a different name.

Cut us and we all bleed, broken hearts all feel the same,

Both sides of the tracks some things you can’t take back,

Both sides of the tracks some things you can’t take back

Daddy never liked me much,

Said I was a leaving kind.

Said I was out of touch

Said I’d Always be a step behind.

He knew that he was out of luck when I pulled up in my truck
