Lyrics

[Intro] That's right, we all get left behind It's just a fact Maybe that's why people have guns Won't help though, just a fact One more time [Verse 1] Jessie was a good girl Went to a good school Her daddy's little pride and joy Up until she reached twelve She never rebelled And then she went and met a boy Now, he was never good for her About six years older Parents thought it was a phase Started calling on God By the time that they tried It was just too late [Pre-Chorus] Better off giving up, did not change enough Nothing but trouble flowing in her blood Just can't stay away, addicted to the pain Would do anything to touch the flame [Chorus] She was a lost cause She was just too far gone, gone Now there's no turning back Our little black sheep gone wrong (wrong), wrong (wrong), wrong She was a lost cause She was just too far gone, gone Now there's no turning back Our little black sheep gone wrong (wrong), wrong (wrong), wrong [Verse 2] Now, by the age of sixteen Couldn't tell her a thing Cause Jessie seemed to know it all She was helping her boyfriend Cook up some methadrine And got in trouble with the law Now everybody knew That she wasn't that bad But it was either her or him They set her up and she lied The judge gave her three-to-five And Jessie ended up inside [Pre-Chorus] Better off giving up, did not change enough Nothing but trouble flowing in her blood Just can't stay away, addicted to the pain Would do anything to touch the flame [Chorus] She was a lost cause She was just too far gone, gone Now there's no turning back Our little black sheep gone wrong (wrong), wrong (wrong), wrong She was a lost cause She was just too far gone, gone Now there's no turning back Our little black sheep gone wrong (wrong), wrong (wrong), wrong [Refrain] Daddy's girl done gone the wrong way And there ain't nothing you can do to change it Daddy's girl done gone the wrong way And there ain't nothing you can do to change [Pre-Chorus] Better off giving up, did not change enough Nothing but trouble flowing in her blood Just can't stay away, addicted to the pain Would do anything to touch the flame [Chorus] She was a lost cause She was just too far gone, gone Now there's no turning back Our little black sheep gone wrong (wrong), wrong (wrong), wrong She was a lost cause (Daddy's girl done gone the wrong way) She was just too far gone, gone Now there's no turning back (And there ain't nothing you can do to change) Our little black sheep gone wrong (wrong), wrong (wrong), wrong
