"Wanted Woman" lyrics

Wanted Woman

Unwanted girl
Wanted woman

I'm a girl
From the state of old Kentucky
My mommy said
She didn't want me from the start
Since the first day I was born
I follow trouble
Too much hate
Without some love
Can't free the heart

Unwanted girl
Wanted woman
Unwanted girl
Wanted woman

Me alone against the world
And all that's in it
I choose every wrong companion
I can find
And the hate that grows within me
I can't conquer
Life itself
Has left me with a twisted mind

Unwanted girl
Wanted woman
Unwanted girl
Wanted woman

Then I met a man
And realized I loved him
Told him I would change
If I could be his wife
But he laughed at me
And said he didn't love me
I did all I knew to do
I took his life

Unwanted girl
Wanted woman
Unwanted girl
Wanted woman
