CHer mom and dad grew up in this town
CMarried after school and settled down
Like Fmost 'round here, bought a little ground
and Cplanted roots.
Her brCother Mark works at daddy's store
CSister Connie's workin' on kid number four
But FRose hit eighteen and hit that door
aCnd she flew
she said I Dmknow they're thinkin'
I'm Emjust the wild Fthing
Just cause you've got roots
Doesn't Dmean you can't hGave wings
CHORUS:
So she Ffli---Ges
soaring Cwhere she's never been
RFeaching out for a lGife
Grabbin' Amall she can take Cin
And she Ffli---Ges like an Ceagle on the wFind
Just cause you've got roots
Doesn't Gmean you can't haveF wings C
She Cmoved to Dallas then Frisco Bay
Spent a year in Denver, wound up in L.A.
Where she Fmet a guy who took her breath away
and sCaid I do!
They hCad a daughter late next fall
Took a trip back home to show her to mom
Her mFama said I've seen it all
she act's jCust like you
RDmose - when she grows Emup
remember oFne thing
Just cause she's got roots
Doesn't mCean she can't haGve wings
So she Ffli---Ges
soaring Cwhere she's never been
RFeaching out for a lGife
Grabbin' Amall she can take Cin
And she Ffli---Ges like an Ceagle on the wFind
Just cause you've got roots
Doesn't Gmean you can't hFave wings C
Eb G
So she Ffli---Ges
soaring Cwhere she's never been
RFeaching out for a lGife
Grabbin' Amall she can take Cin
And she Ffli---Ges like an Ceagle on the wFind
Just cause you've got roots
Doesn't Gmean you can't hFave wings C
Her mCom and dad move to town
In north L.A they settled down
F (..slow down..)
Like most round here, bought a little ground
Cand planted roots.
