They say in this town
Stars stay up all night
Well, I don't know
Can't see 'em for the glow of the neon lights
An' it's a long way from here
To the place where the home fires burn
Well, it's two thousand miles and one left turn

Dear Mom and Dad
Please send money
I'm so broke that it ain't funny
Well, I don't need much
Just enough to get me through
Please don't worry 'cause I'm all right
See, I'm playin' here at the bar tonight
Well, this time I'm gonna make our dreams come true
Well, I love you more than anything in the world
Love
Your baby girl

Black top, blue sky
Big town full of little white lies
Well, everybody's your friend
You can never be sure
They'll promise fancy cars an' diamond rings
An' all sorts of shiny things
But, girl, you'll remember what your knees are for

Dear Mom and Dad
Please send money
I'm so broke that it ain't funny
Well, I don't need much
Just enough to get me through
Please don't worry 'cause I'm all right
See, I'm playin' here at the bar tonight
Well, this time I'm gonna make our dreams come true
Well, I love you more than anything in the world
Love
Your baby girl
 
I know that I'm on my way
Well, I can tell every time I play
An' I know it's worth all the dues I pay
When I can write to you and say
 
Dear Mom and Dad
I'll send money
I'm so rich that it ain't funny
Well, it oughtta be more than enough to get you through
Please don't worry 'cause I'm all right
See, I'm stayin' here at the Ritz tonight
Whaddya know
We made our dreams come true
An' there are fancy cars an' diamond rings
But you know that they don't mean a thing
Well, they all add up to nothin' compared to you
Well, remember me in ribbons an' curls
I still love you more than anything in the world
Love
Your baby girl
 
Ah, yeah
 
Your baby girl

Dear Mom and Dad
Please send money
I'm so broke that it ain't funny
Don't need much
Just enough to get me through
Your baby girl

Please don't worry 'cause I'm all right
Playin' here at the bar tonight

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Dreams come true
