Main Line
Little girl lookin’ pretty-you can see how she walks
On the streets of the city-in the town of New York
Got to be so in fashion-from her head to her feet
Hope to be in the action-knows she’s gotta compete
See the style in her movin’ –with a confident walk
To create the illusion-she’s as sure as a rock
But beneath all the glamour-is a scared little girl
Try her best not to show it-but her head’s really in a whirl
She come here lookin’ for the main line
To be what she’s never been
To try and make it in the big time
To see what she’s never seen
Tell herself she can make it-chance that she’s got to take
Try to find what she’s after-wait for that lucky break
But beneath that ambition-is a heart that needs love
Come a change in her wishin’-one day risin’ above-‘til then
She come here lookin’ for the main line
To be where she’s never been
To try and make it in the big time
To see what she’s never seen
One day she’ll find that it’s not all it’s supposed to be
The glitter fades when she finds most of what she needs-true love and company
But beneath that ambition-is a heart that needs love
Come a change in her wishin’-one day risin’ above-until then
She come here lookin’ for the main line
To be where she’s never been
To try and make it in the big time
To see what she’s never seen
