Well she said
"I got this hat
in California
From a man on the street
his name was Joe
Have you ever been
to California?
well you really gotta go"
She said "I knew a boy
down in Miami
He was a welder
just like you
I love the ocean
in Miami
I've never seen
anything quite so blue"
And I say
"hey where we going
today rocket girl?
Tell me what life is like
past that city limit sign
Dream your dreams
in my ear
baby just get me
out of here
Fly me around this world
rocket girl"
She said
"Have you ever been
to Alberta?
Wheat fields as far
as you can see
Have you ever seen
the prairies?
Someday I'll take you
there with me"
And I say
"hey where we going
today
rocket girl?
Tell me what life is like
past that city limit sign
Dream your dreams
in my ear
baby just get me
out of here
Fly me around this world
rocket girl"
I'd never tell her
she's been busted
I know she's never been
anywhere just like me
But it makes her feel
like Cinderella
And I get to see the
world for free
I just say
"hey where we going
today
rocket girl?
Tell me what life is like
past that city limit sign
Dream your dreams
in my ear
baby just get me
out of here
Fly me around this world"
I just say
"hey where we going
today
rocket girl?
Tell me what life is like
past that city limit sign
Dream your dreams
in my ear
baby just get me
out of here
Fly me around this world
Fly me around this world
rocket girl"
