Same Girl Lyrics
You're still the same girl you always were
You're still the same girl you always were
A few more nights on the street, that's all
A few more holes in your arm
A few more years with me
You're still the same girl
With the same sweet smile that you always had
And the same blue eyes like the sun
And the same clear voice that I always
You're still the same girl
That I love

A devastatingly sparse and haunting song told from the perspective of a pimp, who sadly attempts to convince one of his prostitutes, now a junkie, that she hasn’t changed, that she’s still the happy sweet girl she was before she met him. He promises her “just a few more nights on a street” then “a few more years”, bleakly suggesting there is no way out. Besides death.
I noticed that on the version available on Rhapsody, they cut out "holes" and "arm" in the second line of the second verse.
