When I met her she was a beauty queen who wanted something more Now she's hanging out with me in front of the liquor store And it won't start when I shut it off So she has to get the beer She puts it in the back seat And she quietly says to me When, exactly, did we become white trash How come we got seven dogs living in the garage How come the only eight track in our car is Johnny Cash? e When, exactly, did we become white trash? Now she tells all our friends that I've got my PhD But it stands for Post Hole Digger It ain't exactly a degree And there's curtains on the windows And we hardly watch TV And that double-wide is triple-wide Now that's she's with me And she says When, exactly, did we become white trash How come we got seven dogs Who burned down the garage How come the only eight track in our car is Johnny Cash? When, exactly, did we become white trash Girls: When, exactly, did we become white trash Boys: When, exactly, did we become white trash Santa Cruz: When, exactly, did we become white trash
