She's so very hungry for a piece of Mama's pie

Served up on Grandma's china after church on Sunday night

Oh, now Papa's probably turning out the lights and heading up the stairs

And the wayward child he never talks about still turns up in his prayers

She's a homeward looking angel and she must be feeling mighty tired

Her party dress is tattered but her vision is inspired

And that girl looking back in the mirror, lord, made such a mess of things

And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings

She went gunning for glory but her bullets all misfired

And that girl looking back in the mirror, lord, made such a mess of things

And she's leaving in the morning soon as she can find her wings

Soon as she can find her wings, oh oh ohh-ohhh
