Gonna Move lyrics

When I was a little girl I felt so alone
Quiet country house I had to call home
Living with a couple folks, rich millionaires
Sat on their money Lord it seems they didn`t care

Finally we moved to our own place
Where I could walk around with a smile on my face
And i knew in order to make a stand
I had to pull up my roots and move on in this land

I`m gonna move away from here
You can find me if you want to go there
I`m gonna move away from here
You can find me if you want to go there

Came to a school in the big city
Looked around at the lights and I thought they were pretty
They told me and teached me to live by their rules
So I wouldn`t be nobody`s fool

I found out, not too long
Their rules wouldn`t let me sing my song
I knew in order to make a stand
I had to pull up my roots and move on in this

I`m gonna move away from here
You can find me if you want to go there
I`m gonna move away from here
You can find me if you want to go there

Solo

I`m gonna move away from here
You can find me if you want to go there
I`m gonna move away from here
You can find me if you want to go there

Then I joined the college ranks
There they said they`d teach me how to think
Gave me books to read and papers to write
They didn`t know that this girl`s come to fight

But I found out after awhile
Reading those books was making me loose my smile
I knew in order to not conceal
I had to play music and express what I feel

I`m gonna move away from here
You can find me if you want to go there
I`m gonna move away from here
You can find me if you want to go there

I`m gonna move away from
