She's driving outside providence
She's on the outside looking in
She's finally figured out just where she's going
Her mama says that she's insane
Her daddy swears a boy's to blame
She's never seen the truth so clear before this
Chorus:
'Cause there's a world outside providence
Somewhere to spread her wings and fly
She's taking chances, life begins again
Somewhere outside providence
A hula man sits on her dash
Beside a Rand McNally map
She circles places that she's always heard of
She plans to see the Hoover dam
And the world's biggest frying pan
Open to any place outside Rhode Island
Repeat Chorus
Some things in life don't last
With pieces of the past
Someday she might be back
But not tomorrow
