At thirteen Jessie knew too much for her own good

Her search for independence was misunderstood

A small town's unforgiving when you make mistakes

She broke every rule there was to break

A Greyhound crossed the border saw her turn sixteen

No bridge she wouldn't burn to chase this wayward dream

High heeled shoes and lipstick she looked twenty-one

Jessie's troubles had only just begun

We're all trying to find our way

Some of us run, some of us stay

When you get the urge to go

There's no way to fight it, you can't stop a rolling stone

And the road goes on and on

But your heart will lead you home

Jessie turned eighteen the day the baby came

A child of wild desire from a long gone flame

For everything that's gained there's always something lost

Still too young to understand the cost

Now Jessie's feeling way beyond her twenty years

And sometimes in the night regret can lead to tears

What started as a need to spread her newfound wings

Has seen her come full circle home again

We're all trying to find our way

Some of us run, some of us stay

When you get the urge to go

There's no way to fight it, you can't stop a rolling stone

And the road goes on and on

We're all trying to find our way

Some of us run, some of us stay

When you get the urge to go

There's no way to fight it, you can't stop a rolling stone

And the road goes on and on

But your heart will lead you home

And the road goes on and on

But your heart will lead you home
