Drag Queens In Limousines Lyrics - Singles - Mary Gauthier

I hated high school, I prayed it would end 

The jocks and their girls, it was their world, I didn't fit in 

Mama said, "Baby, it's the best school that money can buy 

Hold your head up, be strong, c'mon Mary, try" 

I stole mama's car on a Sunday and left home for good 

Moved in with my friends in the city, in a bad neighborhood 

Charles was a dancer, he loved the ballet 

And Kimmy sold pot and read Kerouac and Hemingway 

Drag queens in limousines 

Nuns in blue jeans 

Dreamers with big dreams 

All took me in

Charley and I flipped burgers to cover the rent 

And Bourbons at happy hour for .35 cents 

One day before work we got drunk and danced in the rain 

They fired us both, they said 

"Don't y'all come back here again" 

Drag queens in limousines 

Nuns in blue jeans 

Dreamers with big dreams 

All took me in 

My dad went to college, and he worked for the state 

He never quit nothing and he wanted me to graduate 

My brother and sister both play in the marching band 

They tell me they miss me, but I know they don't understand 

Sometimes you got do 

What you gotta do 

And hope that the people you love 

Will catch up with you

Yeah, drag queens in limousines 

Nuns in blue jeans 

Dreamers with big dreams 

Poets and AWOL marines 

Actors and bar flys 

Writers with dark eyes 

Drunks that philosophize
