Who Doesn't Know What I'm Talking About Who's Never Left Home, Who's Never Struck To Find A Dream And A Life Their Own A Place In The Clouds, A Foundation Of Stone
Many Precede And Many Will Follow A Young Girl's Dream Longer Hollow It Takes The Shape Of A Place Out West But What It Holds For Her, She Hasn't Yet Guessed
Chorus: She Needs Wide Open Spaces To Make Her Big Mistakes She Needs New Faces She Knows The High Stakes
She Traveled This Road As Child Wide Eyed And Grinning, She Never Tired But Now She Won't Be Coming Back With Rest If These Are Life's Lessons, She'll Take This
Repeat Chorus
She Knows The High Stakes
As Her Folks Drive Away, Her Dad Yells, \"Check The Oil!\" Stares Out The Window And Says, \"I'm Leaving My Girl\" She Says, It Didn't Seem Like That Long Ago She Stood There And Let Her Own Folks Know
Repeat Chorus She Knows The High Stakes She Knows The High She Knows The High Stakes She Knows The High Stakes
