I found a book that my mama kept
Filled with secrets she hid
And in a dusty old attic, one mornin' i read
About a woman i never met
Who had dreams just like mine
With every page that i turned, her words came alive

Wish i could roll out of town like a run-away train
I'll do as i dare, let them call me insane
Never sit on the sidelines of life, i'd dance every dance
If i just had the chance

A tear fell on that faded page
'cause this was somebody else
Not the mama i knew who never thought of herself
But the times, they were different then
And lines just didn't get crossed
And these words that she wrote, they somehow got lost

Wish i could roll out of town like a run-away train
I'll do as i dare, let them call me insane
Never sit on the sidelines of life, i'd dance every dance
If i just had the chance

The chance that she never had
Is now the gift that is mine
And out here on this road, i'm makin' up for lost time
I am my mother's child and tonight in this car
I got her words in my suitcase
And her dreams in my heart

As i roll out of town like a run-away train
I'll do as i dare, let them call me insane
Never sit on the sidelines of life, i'll dance every dance
While i still have the chance

I'll never sit on the sidelines of life, i'll dance every dance
While i still have the chance
