lyrics

Stranded Here In Oz
(Regan Brown BMI Treehaus Music)

once i was a girl in kansas
dreaming of bright city lights
now i live beyond the rainbow
but i still dream in black and white
i click my red ruby slippers
but they don’t do a goddamn thing
i am prairie girl in exile
who can’t go home again

well the scarecrow is now the wizard
and the lion is the jungle king
i like my horses all one color
i’m so tired of emerald green

oh Auntie Em, i’m so alone
my kansas soul longs for home

back on the farm they shrug their shoulders
as the months turn into years
i am the wild one who road the twister
that dreaming girl who disappeared
in my dreams the witches monkeys
have all become my friends
and they fly me through the wheatfields
where i’m drifting in the wind

oh Auntie Em, i’m so alone
my kansas soul longs for home

now i live beyond the rainbow
but i still dream in black and white.
