Wide Open Spaces Lyrics

Dixie Chicks

Who doesn't know what I'm talking about Who's never left home, who's never struck out To find a dream and a life of their own A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone
Many precede and many will follow A young girl's dream no longer hollow It takes the shape of a place out west But what it holds for her, she hasn't guessed yet
She needs wide open spaces Room to make her big mistakes She needs new faces She knows the high stakes
She travelled this road as a child Wide eyed and grinning, she never tired But now she won't be coming back with the rest If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test
She needs wide open spaces Room to make her big mistakes She needs new faces She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
As her folks drive away, her dad yells, 'check the oil!' Mom stares out the window and says, 'i'm leaving my girl' She says, it didn't seem like that long ago When she stood there and let her own folks know
She needs wide open spaces Room to make her big mistakes She needs new faces She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
She knows the high stakes
