Her morning starts early
Long before the sunrise
She works on her daddy's farm
Has all of her life
Now there are chores to be tended
And prayers to be said
But all the rain in heaven
Couldn't save the crops this year
Now she knows in her heart
That she'll never leave this town
She'll meet someone and marry young
Have a child and settle down
Well, she counts herself as blessed by God
Just to be alive
'Cause in this day and age, it's hard
To know who's wrong or right
Now she believes in her country
And she's not afraid to fight
To defend what she believes in
She'll gladly give her life
And she laughs and she cries
Just like you and I
And she prays to that same God
As she turns out her lights
Somewhere in Russia tonight
Now she has dreams of seeing America one day
Could the stories all be true
Could there be another way
Now her life has pa**ed by her
Oh, just the way she planned
With two fine children of her own
By a strong and honest man
Still deep inside her, there's a longing
Just to see the world
Romantic scenes that filled the dreams
Of a young and restless girl
Now she believes in her country
And she's not afraid to fight
To defend what she believes in
She'll gladly give her life
And she laughs and she cries
Just like you and I
And she prays to that same God
As she turns out her lights
Somewhere in Russia tonight
Yes, she prays to that same God
As she turns out her lights
Somewhere in Russia tonight
