It was a spring day in Ohio

You were such a special child

Let's hold you out the window

Oh just see the small crowd smile

Let's take you home and make a fuss

Let's cram you down their throats

And wait 'til daddy sees you

He wants only just to please you

He is at the corner bar

This is your life

How do you like it so far.

Well, they are tryin' hard to like you

Can you blame 'em if they don't

You could tell them all the things you know

It might kill 'em so you won't

And you keep your eyes wide open

And you know when to disappear

Wait 'til daddy needs you

He wants only just to tease you

So you go drivin' in his car

This is your life

How do you like it so...

Far down the road from me

She is miles away where she can breathe

She is free

I've always been (free) free.

She lives far down the road from me

She is miles away where she can breathe

And you can't take that away from me

She is free

I've always been (free, free) free.

It was on a spring day in Ohio

That's where all of the plans were laid

Where they teach ya how to smile

And be a good girl every day

Well I had my own secret

And it was shining in the sky

Wait 'til daddy frees you

He meant only just to please you

But I was wishin' on a star

Now this is my life

How do you like it so far.
