Well she carries her troubles when she works at night Carries her troubles when she works at night Hides her tears underneath her eyes We don't see her cry She's a good, sweet girl but the world ain't nice Beautiful girl but the world ain't nice The cruelty of men doesn't give her no choice For the chance to make right The flame in stars Are never it desires And the righteous guard In the middle of the fire Well he makes good money but he can't survive Makes good money but he pays the price He kept the house, she took their child And he knows it ain't right Now he's dating the world, but he's lost his life The whole wide world, but he's lost his mind Broken words doesn't show outside No will to fight The flame in stars Are never it desires And the righteous guard In the middle of the fire Yeah the silver's worth The pain it endures And the faith is sure In the middle of the fire Well she carried her troubles to her knees at night Carried her troubles to her knees at night Prayed to God they might steal your little girl With tears in her eyes And the man made a deal that he won't break twice Made a good deal that he won't break twice Prayed to God I'll trust you more In the middle of the fire The flame in stars Are never it desires And the righteous guard In the middle of the fire Yeah the silver's worth The pain it endures And the faith is sure In the middle of the fire Yeah the faith is sure
