Postcards From The Edge

Here's another story 'bout Baby.
She sent a postcard home today
Says she's been stayin out in Vegas
Tryin to make it day by day

She's workin as a Showgirl
Makin her livin on a stage
They're payin her well out there
She says she can't complain

Baby plans on headin to the shore
Maybe down to Jersey she says
Heard that's where all the fun is
But nothin's definite yet

She bought her a brand new car
One of them fancy Mercedes Benz
She eats in Four Star Restaurants
And even made her a few new friends.

But Baby, she gets bored fast
Can't stay in one place too long
So Baby just picks up and runs
Leavin only her name to carry on.

Said when she gets to the shore
She thinks she'll like it there
Always something to do and see
Heard there's good men every where.

Baby ain't comin back no time soon
She likes livin her life on the run.
She can be who ever she wants
And move on when her work is done

She had nobody home to miss her
What's done is done, what's said is said
But we'll never forget about Baby
So long as we keep gettin postcards from the edge.
