That house on the hill is long gone
Now she´s living in a trailer with an Astroturf lawn
Got three little kids and no one to help
Trying to be Momma and Daddy all by herself
It´s hard to hold down the fort when you´re holdin´ down a job
She´d rob Peter to pay Paul but he´s already been robbed
She gets the food on the table and the clothes off the lines
She´d break down and cry but she doesn´t have time

She got to be strong, life goes on
Though it´s nothin´ like she had planned
She´s gonna be o.k. gonna find a way
Living in no man´s land

Every now and then late at night
She thinks of how it would feel to hold someone tight
And there´s a guy down at work he keeps callin´ her up
But she ain´t ready for none of that stuff
She´s still sifting through the ashes of a love that´s been and gone
Looking for a clue, trying to find out what went wrong
It ain´t always easy, but she knows she´s gotta try
Every time she looks into her babies´ eyes

She got to be strong, life goes on
Though it´s nothin´ like she had planned
She´s gonna be o.k. gonna find a way
Living in no man´s land

She got to be strong, life goes on
Though it´s nothin´ like she had planned
She´s gonna be o.k. gonna find a way
Living in no man´s land
No man´s land
