Daddy said since the day I was born

I'd stand there staring out of that screen door

Tryin' to reach the handle, go out and play in the yard

Since then, I guess ain't much changed

If I ain't workin' and it don't rain

I'm all Laura Ingalls on the prairie, dawn till dark

Outside, give me a midnight moon or a blue sky

A west wind blowin' through the barbed wire

Yeah, I come alive when I feel it on my skin

I'm talkin' out there

Where a worry turns into I don't care

If you wanna get to know me on the inside

See my best side, get me outside

My baby calls me up on his way home

"Hey girl, where you wanna go?

We could get a table for two somewhere downtown"

I was thinkin', baby, we could skip the bar

Find a little spot underneath the stars

I just wanna lay there in your arms till that sun comes up

Outside, give me a midnight moon or a blue sky

A west wind blowin' through the barbed wire

Yeah, I come alive when I feel it on my skin

I'm talkin' out there

Where a worry turns into I don't care

If you wanna get to know me on the inside

See my best side, get me outside, yeah

I'm talkin' outside

Out past the city limit sign

A little closer to Heaven

Where the sun is settin' in your eyes

Outside, give me a midnight moon or a blue sky

A west wind blowin' through the barbed wire

Yeah, I come alive when I feel it on my skin

I'm talkin' out there

Where a worry turns into I don't care

If you wanna get to know me on the inside

See my best side, get me outside, yeah
