(Dolly Parton) 



The hills were alive with wildflowers 

And I was as wild, even wilder than they 

For at least I could run, they just died in the sun 

And I refused to just wither in place 



Just a wild mountain rose, needing freedom to grow 

So I ran fearing not where I'd go 

When a flower grows wild, it can always survive 

Wildflowers don't care where they grow 



And the flowers I knew in the fields where I grew 

Were content to be lost in the crowd 

They were common and close, I had no room for growth 

I wanted so much to branch out 



I uprooted myself from home ground and left 

Took my dreams and I took to the road 

When a flower grows wild, it can always survive 

Wildflowers don't care where they grow 



I grew up fast and wild and I never felt right 

In a garden so different from me 

I just never belonged, I just longed to be gone 

So the garden, one day, set me free 



Hitched a ride with the wind and since he was my friend 

I just let him decide where we'd go 

When a flower grows wild, it can always survive 

Wildflowers don't care where they grow
