Steel Magnolia

Go right ahead girl
Taking those pink pills
Cast your anxiety on modern medicine
Claim you had it rough, babe
Back in your younger days
Those pills, won't save you from the wicked world outside

And we're gonna have to face it
I've grown so complacent
And I don't get those butterflies, like I did when I was a child
So I'll take you out in town
Spin you off the ground
To music of a symphony, of sympathies last try

And it's the last time that I'll hold you, comfort and console you
Gonna make a boy who'll leave you crying in your drive
'Cause I'm done playing the role of
A man who's got a hold of, a beaten-broken soul of, that steel magnolia
That steel magnolia

And I remember your name
And the girl who once came, through that door with her head held tall and proud
But the woman I once trusted, couldn't get adjusted to this life that droned on her too loud
And the world got the best of you, it's coming back for the rest of you
So I'm getting out of here before these walls come down in flames

And this is the last time that I'll hold you, comfort and console you
Gonna make a boy who'll leave you crying in your drive
'Cause I'm done taking the role of
Man who's got a hold of, a beaten-broke soul of that steel magnolia
That steel magnolia, that steel magnolia

So go right ahead girl
Take another pink pill
Cast your anxiety on modern medicine
