Enuff Z'nuff 5 Smiles Away
Tami's just a little girl
Who loves herself and hates the world
And everyday she takes a pill
To calm her head and keep her still
And hoping the day is gonna come
When she don't need one
It's only five smiles away
To the border
The light'll shine the way
It's only five smiles away
To be heaven's daughter
And I hope you find the way
Tami got a job at Redd's
To buy her food and cigarettes
But when her kitty had to eat
Yeah that would take another feat
Sometimes she cries in her sleep
It's running so deep
It's only five smiles away
To the border
I hope you find the way
It's only five smiles away
To be heaven's daughter
And I hope you find the way
In this great big world
Can eat you up alive
For a pretty girl
It's harder to survive
When all the wolves
They stalk you like you're prey
You'd better find yourself
Or find yourself a new day
May take a little time
To keep the paint inside the lines
There'll always be a special leap
A pretty smile, a friend to meet, yeah
And when Valentine's Day didn't come
There couldn't be one
