Kat Hasty - Pretty Things

You said that I drank too much
The tattoos in my skin are not your style
You didn't like cigarette on my kiss
Well I hope thats something you miss
'Cause I'm not slowin' down for a while

I'd been desperate to fix what we've been
But some things need to stay broken
I realized you're not worth me tryin to hide

'Cause baby you don't own me
You never could control me
The road you're on looks lonely
And I hope like hell it is

I'm never gonna be your southern Texas wanna be beauty queen
I'm never gonna be your red dress, long leg, blonde haired southern dream
I know I'm worth more than just the pretty things
And that's alright by me

I wanted you so bad that I couldn't see
The truth was sittin' there in front of me
It was never love, it was never real
You wanted something to fix, not something to feel
But I am not your accessory
I'm not a marionette for your passenger seat
A lesson learned and now I'm free
Your green eyes look like shit to me

'Cause baby you don't own me
You never could control me
The road you're on looks lonely
And I hope like hell it is

I'm never gonna be your southern Texas wanna be beauty queen
I'm never gonna be your red dress, long leg, blonde haired southern dream
I know I'm worth more than just the pretty things
And that's alright by me

So won't you go on and marry that lady
Wears Louis Vuitton
Drives around in her Mercedes
Says downtown Dallas is the place to be
Daddy gave her everything she's got for free
She looks real good with her head down low
Always minds her business in your shadow
Kisses your ass like you wanted me to
Well good luck honey, he's all for you

'Cause baby you don't own me
You never could control me
The road you're on looks lonely
And I hope like hell it is

I'm never gonna be your southern Texas wanna be beauty queen
I'm never gonna be your red dress, long leg, blonde haired southern dream
I know I'm worth more than just the pretty things
And that's alright by me
