Lyrics
© 2010 Janice Hopkins / Magne Kolstad
Tucson Arizona
Her Mom could never hold her little girl down
Knew her own mind before she could count
Heard her sayin’ to her Barbie’s…..be strong
Be your own woman, how can that be wrong
No man’s runnin’ her life, ownin’ her days
Choosin’ her clothes, her plans will be made
If she heard, girl I’m gonna own ya’
She’d hear Tucson Arizona
Desperately callin’ her name
She’d say so long…. nice to know ya’
Desert winds in Arizona
Are burnin’ in me like a flame
Nice to know ya’
Send my things to Tucson Arizona
Her independence was a God given right
That began to change one steamy June night
She was taken by his boyish good looks
A few weeks of him and that’s all it took
Well he was runnin’ her life, ownin’ her days
Choosin’ her clothes, her plans were already made
When he said, “Girl I’m gonna own ya’
She heard, Tucson Arizona
Desperately callin’ her name
She said, So long…. nice to know ya’
Desert winds in Arizona
Are burnin’ in me like a flame
Nice to know ya’
Send my things to Tucson, Arizona
He chased her right out the door
A scene she always swore….she’d never live with
Told him things he couldn’t hear
Then she felt what seemed like fear
Well….it was ALL….his
Repeat chorus x2
