She's the prettiest girl i have ever seen,
walking defenition of a beauty queen,
every man in town wants to take her away,
but she hasn't always been this way,

Shoulda seen that girl twenty years ago,
With a kool-aid mustache and freckle nose,
Now shes breaking hearts and taking names,
But she hasn't always been this way,

She didnt mean anything to me,
I brushed her off so easily,

She hasn't always been this way,
I really can beleive how much that girl has changed,
She's out of my life,
She's out of my reach,
I'm out of her mind,
She's out of my league,
But she hasn't always been this way

Well her brother Bobby was my best friend,
So she followed us around where ever we went,
Now she wont give me the time of day,
But she hasnt always been this way,

When i was sixteen she gave me a card,
said "I love you with all my heart",

She hasn't always been this way,
I really can beleive how much that girl has changed,
She's out of my life,
She's out of my reach,
I'm out of her mind,
She's out of my league,
But she hasn't always been this way,

She hasn't always been this way,
I really can beleive how much that girl has changed,
She's out of my life,
She's out of my reach,
I'm out of her mind,
She's out of my league,
But she hasn't always been this way,
No she hasn't always been this way
