There she was just seventeen

Cryin' on the mornin' after

He told her everything she wanted to hear

All those drunken reasons that she had

For givin' in don't matter

And they don't stop the tears noooo

What do you do when it's too late

 What do you say when you can't change the truth

 Of what you've done

 And it's coming at you fast

 When you can't hide the hurt inside

 How do you pray to make it right

 When you wanna change the past

 And you can't take it back

You can't take it back

Scared to death she tells her friend

 To meet her at the drugstore counter

And finds out what she didn't wanna hear

Daddy will die

Her mamma will cry

 The kids at school will talk about her

There ain't no easy way outta here oh

What do you do when it's too late

 What do you say when you can't change the truth

 Of what you've done

 And it's coming at you fast

 When you can't hide the hurt inside

 How do you pray to make it right

 When you wanna change the past

 And you can't take it back

All the choices

That she's made

 That baby staring back at her

 Is one she wouldn't change

What do you do when it's too late

 What do you say when you can't change the truth

 Of what you've done

 And it's coming at you fast

 When you can't hide the hurt inside

 How do you pray to make it right

 When you wanna change the past

 And you can't take it back

You can't take it back

 What do you do when it's too late

 What do you say when you can't change the truth

 Of what you've done

 And it's coming at you fast

 When you can't hide the hurt inside

 How do you pray to make it right

 When you wanna change the past

 And you can't take it back

Sometimes it ain't so bad
