Verse 1
Playing My Room Gig At 10 Years Old,
Vergent Drinks And Cigarette Smoke.
There Was No Such Thing As A School At Night,
Growing Up Under Neon Lights.
So, Mr. Sound, I Turn Up My Guitar On Stage,
Cuz If The Boys Can't Hear Me, They Can't Play.
And If You Got Any Questions, You Can Read The Marquee.
Don't You Ask, The Base Man Cut The Check To Me
Chorus
Cuz I've Been Out Here For A While,
15 Years And A Million Miles.
Don't It Mean That I'm For Real?
Plus I Paid My Dues Backwards In Heels.
Yes, I Paid My Dues Backwards In Heels.

Verse 2
At Your Show Too, Man, Go Ahead And Get Drunk,
But If You're Going To Talk, Don't Sit Up Front.
Cuz I've Heard All Your Lines And You Don't Impress Me,
And If You Want To Take Me Home, You Can Buy A Cd.
Chorus
Cuz I've Been Out Here For A While,
15 Years And A Million Miles.
Don't It Mean That I'm For Real?
Plus I Paid My Dues Backwards In Heels.
Yes, I Paid My Dues Backwards In Heels.
Bridge
And Honey, I Ain't Your Darling, No, You Must Be Mistaken,
I Could Grow You Apart, All The Crap I've Been Digging.
That If I Were My Brother, I'd Be More Than Handsome,
Yeah, I May Be Pretty, But Maybe Just A Little.
Chorus
Cuz I've Been Out Here For A While,
15 Years And A Million Miles.
Don't It Mean That I'm For Real?
Plus I Paid My Dues Backwards In Heels.
Yes, I Paid My Dues Backwards In Heels.
I Paid My Dues Backwards In Heels.
Yes, I Paid My Dues Backwards In Heels
