Sonny

Stevie Smith

Her momma cried
As she walked towards the door
She said if you walk out
You're not my daughter anymore
Twenty-five long years
She'd been waiting for this day
She finally got the courage
To get up and walk away
Sonny was a flower child
Rodeo Queen
Raised on grits and collard greens
She can drive a tractor
She can drive a truck
But when it comes to living
She just feels stuck
Stuck
So she ran away
She left it all behind
They said she was crazy
They said she had lost her mind
But Sonny just didn't care
Cause she was tired of pretending
That life in this little old town
Was anymore than just existing, yeah
Sonny was a flower child
Rodeo Queen
Raised on grits and collard greens
She can drive a tractor
She can drive a truck
But when it comes to living
She just feels stuck
And her wheels are spinning
Sinking further in the mud
But it don't matter to Sonny
To her this whole town is a rut
To her this whole town is a rut
And she just feels stuck
Yeah this small town is a rut
Just before she hit that old county line
She stopped to fill up her tank
Across the street some prophet was Preaching about Mary Magdalene
She pictured Jesus drawing lines in the Sand and stones falling
From righteous hands
And she smiled cause she knew
Not one of us is without sin, Yeah
Sonny was a flower child
Rodeo Queen
Raised on grits and collard greens
She can drive a tractor
She can drive a truck
But when it comes to living
She just feels
Sonny was a flower child
Rodeo Queen
Raised on grits and collard greens
She can drive a tractor
She can drive a truck
But when it comes to living
She just feels stuck
She just feels stuck, yeah
She just feels stuck, yeah
She just feels stuck
