She walks up and down those halls every day
School ain't easy and that's okay
She stays up all night doing English and Math
It's a wonder she don't fall asleep in class
Number 47 on the football team
Sits three rows back
And walks through her dreams
If she gets the routine right
She cheers for him on Friday nights
She's got great big dreams
Like her first car and what freedom means
Who she's going to be
Oh, there's so much out there for her to see
It's a great big world
Waiting on a small town girl
Her fashion sense is somewhere between
Abercrombie and CMT
Her iPod is loaded up with Garth
Her BFF likes Jordin Sparks
She wants to be Homecoming Queen
Wants to get these braces off her teeth
She feels awkward at this age
Like all her friends on her Myspace page
She's got great big dreams
Like her first car and what freedom means
Who she's going to be
Oh, there's so much out there for her to see
It's a great big world
Waiting on a small town girl
It's out there waiting
Yeah, yeah, yeah
She's got great big dreams
Like her first car and what freedom means
Who she's going to be
Oh, there's so much out there for her to see
It's a great big world
Waiting on a small town girl
Watch her fly
She's going to spread her wings and say goodbye
Like this town
She'll put her faith in the Lord above
It's a great big world
Waiting on a small town...
It's a great big world
Waiting on a small town girl
A small town girl
Yeah, yeah, yeah
