<i>[Originally by Poison]</i><br>
<br>
She stepped off the bus out into the city streets,<br>
Just a small town girl, with her whole life packed in a suitcase by her feet,<br>
But somehow the lights didn't shine as bright as they did on her mama's TV screen,<br>
And the work seemed hard, and the days seemed longer than she ever thought they'd be.<br>
<br>
But you know you got to stick to your guns when it all comes down,<br>
'Cause sometimes you can't choose,<br>
It's like heads they win, and tails you're gonna lose.<br>
<br>
Win big,<br>
Mama's fallen angel,<br>
Lose big,<br>
Living out her lies,<br>
Wants it all,<br>
Mama's fallen angel,<br>
Lose it all,<br>
Rolling the dice with her life.<br>
<br>
Now she found herself in the fast lane, living day to day,<br>
Turned her back on her best friends yeah, and let her family slip away,<br>
Just like a lost soul caught up in the Hollywood scene,<br>
All the parties and the limousines,<br>
Such a good actress, hiding all of her pain,<br>
Trading memories for fortune and fame.<br>
<br>
Just a step away from the edge of a fall,<br>
Caught between heaven and hell,<br>
Where's the girl I knew a year ago?<br>
<br>
Win big,<br>
Mama's fallen angel,<br>
Lose big,<br>
Living out her lies,<br>
Wants it all,<br>
Mama's fallen angel,<br>
Lose it all,<br>
Rolling the dice with her life.<br>
<br>
Too much, too soon, or just a little too late,<br>
'Cause when the ship came in she wasn't there, and it just wouldn't wait.<br>
<br>
Win big,<br>
Mama's fallen angel,<br>
Lose big,<br>
Living out her lies,<br>
Wants it all,<br>
Mama's fallen angel,<br>
Lose it all,<br>
Rolling the dice with her life,<br>
Win big,<br>
Mama's fallen angel,<br>
Lose big,<br>
Living out her lies,<br>
Wants it all,<br>
Mama's fallen angel,<br>
Lose it all,<br>
Rolling the dice with her life.<br>
<BR><BR>
