She´s gotta do what she´s gotta do
And I´ve gotta like it or not
She´s got dreams too big for this town
And she needs to give ´em a shot
Whatever they are

Looks like she´s all ready to leave
Nothing left to pack
Ain´t no room for me in that car
Even if she asked me to tag along
God, I gotta be strong
She´s at the startin´ line of the rest of her life
As ready as she´s ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in her eyes
The prize is hers to win
She´s waitin´ on my blessings
Before she hits that open road
But baby get ready, get set, don´t go
She says things are fallin´ in place
Feels like they´re fallin´ apart
I painted this big old smile on my face
To hide my broken heart
If only she knew
This is where I don´t say

What I want so bad to say
This is where I want to
But I won´t get in the way
Of her and her dreams
And spreadin´ her wings
She´s at the startin´ line of the rest of her life
As ready as she´s ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in her eyes
The prize is hers to win
She´s waitin´ on my blessings
Before she hits that open road
But baby get ready, get set, don´t go
She´s at the startin´ line of the rest of her life
As ready as she´s ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in her eyes
The prize is hers to win
She´s waitin´ on my blessings
Before she hits that open road

But baby get ready, get set, please don´t go
Don´t go, mmm don´t go
She´s gotta do what she´s gotta do
She´s gotta do what she´s gotta do
