Oh, she had the whole wide world, in her hand; 

 Oh, she had the whole wide world feeding outa her hand; 

 Oh oh - oh oh 

She had everything and everyone; 

She could possibly meet, 

fell in love;

 Oh oh - oh oh 

She had the perfect girl, the perfect smile; 

The perfect body to make your while; 

 Oh oh - oh oh 

She had, oh she had; 

She had everything; 

You saw her walking the streets of L.A.; 

Thinking damn girl.. what I wouldn't do to slay; 

Oh oh - she had everything- oh oh - oh oh; 

She had the perfect job, the amazing money, the beautiful girl; 

A beautiful world, in her hands - oh in her hands;

 And she let it go; 

The greed got to her head, got to her heart; 

 She didn't see, she didn't know - oh oh;So she let it go; 

Her heart turned to black, consumed for more, pushing away the people who she adored;

 Oh oh - oh ohThere goes her job; 

No fortune, no fame, no one to blame;

 But herself; 

The girl she loved, up and left; 

Oh oh - oh oh; 

 The world's in shambles (2x); 

If she would have said no, and let it go; 

Not did the drugs, to put on a show - oh oh, she'd have it all; 

Now, she's home, in the rural town of Nebraska;

 Working a job, 9-5;Off highway 211; 

Her hair tied in a bun, thinking 'bout the fun she could have had in the good ole' days, when life was goin' her way; 

 She thinks about the guys, and the money she made; 

 The perfect job and the perfect bod' ; 

Oh oh - oh oh, she had everything; 

But now she has nothing; 

Now she is hurting;

 She had everything in the palm of her hand; 

Now she has nothing, now she has no one; 

And her girl is with a better someone; 

Someone who's on Broadway, someone who's better in every way;

 Oh oh - oh oh, she's remembering, ya she's hurting;Because, oh oh - oh ohNow she has nothing; (The end)
