Darryl Rahn - Look at Her Now Lyrics

Look at Her Now

She's a college grad who's been waiting tables downtown
For the past two years just to keep her feet on the ground
Every morning she shows up to serve with a smile on her face
So you'd never even guess she's been dying to leave this place
To where she no longer heeds the request of the higher-ups
Running back and forth 'cause the soup ain't hot enough
And she'll finally do what she's on this earth to do
With the voice of an angel and words that ring loud and true
How about you?
She will wait and she'll wait
Filling glasses, stacking plates
Always told she'd be something great
Well look at her now
She rolls a thin cigarette after work on the front porch steps
Outside her parent's house, living like she never left
Slowly drowning in debt for the lessons learned out of state
And all the books she bought but never opened anyway
Any day now, any day
She will wait and she'll wait
Turning tables, passing dates
Always swore she'd be something great
Well look at her now
Look at her now
She will wait and she'll wait
Go in early, get out late
The real world is just a figure eight
She's been running around
But just you wait
Someday you'll be on the interstate
Chasing glory, fighting fate
And all these folks stuck here will say
"Look at her now"
