Joanna Mosca – Dream On Savannah

3rd grade she was a little too tall
Her hand it downs the size too small
Heard em talking down the hall and they say

Oh look at little miss skiny string bean
Teacher’s pet, red headed freak
Connect the dots with the freckles on her face

[Bridge]
And she said,
I don’t care what you say
You’re gonna take it all back someday

[Chorus]
And they said
Dream on Savannah, dream on Savannah
A million, trillion wishes and it won’t make it all come true
Dream on Savannah, dream on Savannah
You ain’t going nowhere, look at you
Dream on Savannah

Football games and homecoming queen
She never fit into that popular dream
She had a small part in a little scene
Of rome and juliet
She knew one day she’d find the spotlight
Everybody said she was out of her mind
Girls like you don’t get out of towns like this

[Bridge]
And she said,
I don’t care what you say
You’re gonna take it all back someday

[Chorus]
And they said
Dream on Savannah, dream on Savannah
A million, trillion wishes and it won’t make it all come true
Dream on Savannah, dream on Savannah
You ain’t going nowhere, look at you
Dream on Savannah

[Guitar solo]

Now they all lined up
Outside the fairview theatre
Beneath the marking sign that has Savannah’s name in lights
They said they always knew, she’d be a star someday
Now all the boys, they

[Chorus]
Dream on Savannah, dream on Savannah
A million, trillion wishes and you made it all come through
Dream on Savannah, dream on Savannah
You never did give up, now look at you
Dream on Savannah
Dream on Savannah, dream on Savannah
A million, trillion wishes and you made it all come through
Dream on Savannah, dream on Savannah.
