She wakes up every morning And drags a brush through her hair Has a strong cup of coffee She ain't got much to wear She punches in at 7 a.m. And works a 10 hour shift She's livin' a hard life She's still got a lot to give
She ain't got a whole lot of money That ain't stopped her yet This girls got hopes and dreams She's not through livin' yet She's gonna go far and she's not in a hurry She's workin' on a one way ticket To anywhere
Everybody's so settled down Just live day to day Well Billy wants to marry her She don't know what to say There's nothing wrong with a small town Some folks never leave But this girls got a wild heart Tryin' to get free
She ain't got a whole lot of money That ain't stopped her yet This girls got hopes and dreams She's not through livin' yet She's gonna go far and she's not in a hurry She's workin' on a one way ticket To anywhere
She could take Billy's offer And have a couple of kids She could stay at the factory Yeah... just like her momma did
But this girl's different She's gotta go her own way She might be a little foolish She's goin' for it anyway
She ain't got a whole lot of money That ain't stopped her yet This girls got hopes and dreams She's not through livin' yet She's gonna go far and she's not in a hurry She's workin' on a one way ticket To anywhere
