rocket girl lyrics

She said, "I got this hat in California
From a man on the street, his name is Joe
Have you ever been to California?
Well, you really got to go"

She said, "I knew a man down in Miami
He was a welder just like you"
She said, "I love the ocean in Miami
I've never seen anything quite so blue"

Hey, where we goin' today rocket girl?
Tell me what life is like past the city limit sign
Dream your dreams in my ear, bady 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"

Hey, where we goin' today rocket girl?
Tell me what life is like past the city limit sign
Dream your dreams in my ear, just get me out of here
Fly me around this world, rocket girl

I 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 goin' today rocket girl?
Tell me what life is like past the city limit sign
Dream your dreams in my ear, just get me out of here
Fly me around this world, rocket girl
