	Story Behind the Song Sitting in the back of an old tour bus, I wrote this in dedication to my old guitar player who said, "Honey, just stand there and look pretty. We'll do the rest." He's not with us anymore. I wonder how long it took him to walk from Pheonix back to Austin? Lyrics Met me when I was just seventeen, treated me like you treat a queen One problem with this monarchy, didn't see through you're pretty little scheme. To you I was just your little trophy, then I got wind of your boasting Pretty little drape on your arm, held her own little coup de'tat Who needs words when you got the look, stand there and look pretty No expanding your mind, no reading no books, stand there and look pretty Just like to watch the way you walk, stand there and look pretty Pretty little thing like you don't need to talk Fast forward to a few months ago, ah look who's in control Saw you working it on the streets, you told me I still look seventeen Asked if I could come and sit for a spell, and don't I remember how you treated me so well? Yeah baby, I remember those days but I remember how I sent you away Who needs words when you got the look, stand there and look pretty No expanding your mind, no reading no books, stand there and look pretty Just like to watch the way you walk, stand there and look pretty Pretty little thing like you don't need to talk You're always saying sweet lies, you're always playing the game Nothing new coming out of your mouth, boy you got no shame Before you're pretty little smirk goes south, I gotta tell you boy...shut your mouth Who needs words when you got the look, stand there and look pretty No expanding your mind, no reading no books, stand there and look pretty Just like to watch the way you walk, stand there and look pretty Pretty little thing like you don't need to talk
