Karaoké Daddy's Mugshot Laci Kaye Booth

When I was younger

I thought he was a god with a guitar

Mama was a bombshell with her hand on her hip standing outside the trailer park

Every time he'd vanish

And I the angel he'd banish

Now I'm a little too Texas for

Tennessee

I smiled in the picture but I was gritting my teeth

They found bitter in my bones when they broke this show pony

Said I'd be a star

Hell, they don't even know me

What runs in the blood ain't ever gonna stop

I might look like my mama but I smile like my daddy's mugshot

I made a record that didn't break no records

Only my soul

I ran my mouth and I swore up and down that I'd pack all my shit and go home

Oh

I shoulda known

I'm a little too Texas for

Tennessee

I smiled in the picture but I was gritting my teeth

They found bitter in my bones when they broke this show pony

Said I'd be a star

Hell, they don't even know me

What runs in the blood ain't ever gonna stop

I might look like my mama but I smile like my daddy's mugshot

Yeah, I wouldn't kiss the ring

Wouldn't get down on my knees

When they kicked me out the door

I could hear 'em sayin', she's

A little too Texas for

Tennessee

I smiled in the picture but I was gritting my teeth

They found bitter in my bones when they broke this show pony

Said I'd be a star

Hell, they don't even know me

What runs in the blood ain't ever gonna stop

I might look like my mama but I smile like my daddy's mugshot

Hmm

Yeah, they will get their karma

And I'll smile like my daddy's mugshot
