With her mind made up and tears in her eyes,
Bm A G A
she almost made her daddy cry
G A D
he said, "Don't forget to call when you get there girl."
Bm G D
Drivin' on that 2-lane road hopin' she might find

She's 18 and it's time she got out of the woods

All bills paid and a room with a view, she's unpacked a dish or two
G A D A
She just got her phone turned on today
