She didn't see the flash
Her makeup wasn't perfect
Purse slung on her chair
Cigarette hand in her hair
A thousand-mile stare
Just sittin' there
If looks could kill
She'd be killin' it, killin' it
Oh, but life ain't fair
If hearts could spill
She'd be spillin' it, spillin' it
On the tablecloth right there
It's a shame that all she'll ever be
Is the girl in the picture that won the blue ribbon
At the Faulkner County fair
No, she didn't dance
But not 'cause nobody asked her
She just sat and laughed
Like the bubbles in her glass
Disappearing like her happy ever after
If looks could kill
She'd be killin' it, killin' it
Oh, but life ain't fair
If hearts could spill
She'd be spillin' it, spillin' it
On the tablecloth right there
It's a shame that all she'll ever be
Is the girl in the picture that won the blue ribbon
At the Faulkner County fair
Shouldn't be a price
For catching the last smile
Of a girl named Caroline
If looks could kill
She'd be killin' it, killin' it
Oh, but life ain't fair
If hearts could spill
She'd be spillin' it, spillin' it
On the tablecloth right there
It's a shame that all she'll ever be
Is the girl in the picture that won the blue ribbon
The girl in the picture that won the blue ribbon
At the Faulkner County fair
Oh, at the Faulkner County fair
