[Verse 1:]
Brother's in the backyard diggin' in the dirt
Mama's in the kitchen in an old t-shirt
Daddy's diesel's coming up the street
And she's in her bedroom
Growing her wings
Ready to Run in her headphones
Pretty in pink on all ten toes
Nose in a Cosmo magazine
All the junk Mama says
She's too young to read
Little do they know she's growing her wings
[Chorus:]
They got her whole life on lockdown
Doing time behind her bedroom door
I guess it's alright for right now
But outside her window
There's so much more room for running
And space to discover
A whole wide world to see
She's dreaming about the girl
She's gonna be
Stuck in Ross County
Growing her wings
[Verse 2:]
The neighbor boy taught her how to French kiss
And Daddy's got eyes in the back of his head
He said, "no dating 'til you're 18"
Now she's in her room grounded
Growing her wings
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Bridge:]
She wants to fly and never look down
But tonight she's tucked
Inside a tiny little town
In a little twin bed
All safe and sound
[Chorus:]
And there's so much
More room for running
And space to discover
A whole wide world to see
She's dreaming about the girl
That she's gonna be
Stuck in Ross County
Growing her wings
Growing her wings
