Roots And Wings Lyrics

Her mum and dad grew up in this town

Married after school and settled down

Like most round here, bought a little ground

And planted roots.

Her brother Mark works att daddy's store

Sister Connie's wornin' on kid number four

But Rose hut eighteen and hit "that" door

And she flew

She said I know they're thinkin'

I'm just the wild thing

Just cause you've got roots

Doesn't mean you can't have wings

CHORUS:

So she flies

Soaring where she's never been

Reaching out for a life

Grabbin' all she can take in

She flies like an eagle on the wind

Just cause you've got rootsJill Johnson - Roots And Wings - http://motolyrics.com/jill-johnson/roots-and-wings-lyrics.html

Doesn't mean you can't have wings

She moved to Dallas then Frisco Bay

Spent a year in Denver, (and) wound up in L.A.

Where she met a guy who took her breath away

And said I do!

They had a daughter late next fall

Took a trip back home to show her to mum

Her mama said (baby) I've seen it all

She act's just like you

Rose - when she grows up

Remember one thing

Just cause she's got roots

Doesn't mean she can't have wings

CHORUS

Her mum and dad move to town

In north L.A they settled down

Like most round here, bought a little ground

And planted roots.
