Sweet Child 'O Mine
Lyrics by Cory Smith, music by Guns 'N Roses
She's got a smile that it seems to me
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now-a-days, when I see her face
Now-a-days, when I see her face
I don’t even see, one single trace
I don’t even see, one single trace
of any kind of smile, it makes me just want to cry
of any kind of smile, it makes me just want to cry
Whoa, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
Whoa, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
She, turned thirteen, and learned to whine
She, turned thirteen, and learned to whine
She just says, what she wants to say
She just says, what she wants to say
without a, lot of thought
without a, lot of thought
Sometimes when she talks with her mom, well, things get kind of hot
Sometimes when she talks with her mom, well, things get kind of hot
Her mood reminds me of a seismograph
Her mood reminds me of a seismograph
When it’s measuring a quake
When it’s measuring a quake
And when those hormones, do their thing, it’s more than I can take
And when those hormones, do their thing, it’s more than I can take
Whoa, oh, oh-oh, sweet child o' mine
Whoa, oh, oh-oh, sweet child o' mine
Ooh, she, turned thirteen, and learned to whine
Ooh, she, turned thirteen, and learned to whine
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
Ooh, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah
I miss the days when she was nine
I miss the days when she was nine

Where did she go?
Where did she go?
Where did she go now?
Where did she go now?
Where did she go?
Where did she go?
Ooh, oh, where did she go?
Ooh, oh, where did she go?
Where did she go now?
Where did she go now?
Oh, where did she go now?
Oh, where did she go now?
She just says, “No!” (Sweet child)
She just says, “No!” (Sweet child)
It’s status quo now
It’s status quo now
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Where did she go now?
Where did she go now?
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
She used to glow
She used to glow
Oh, ages ago now
Oh, ages ago now
Oh, I’m not her foe
Oh, I’m not her foe
Oh, seems like it though, now
Oh, seems like it though, now
Where did she go?
Where did she go?
Oh, where did she go now?
Oh, where did she go now?
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Sweet child
Sweet child
Sweet child of mine
Sweet child of mine
