Trailblazer

Everybody needs a hero Somebody who can show 'em the ropes You gave a match like me a little kerosene With every song you wrote I'm lucky to have someone to lean on When the weeds get high A little Louisiana twang and some Oklahoma rain And a heart that just won't lie Oh, I know a cowgirl When I see one And I'm sure proud to be one Talk about a trailblazer Cuttin' one path at a time Runnin' like a dream chaser Livin' on a prayer and a rhyme You put a flag in the ground to a country sound To the rhythm of your own highway Talk about a trailblazer I'm rollin' down the road you paved I saw 'em on the Opry I heard 'em on the radio They taught me how to write, how to hold on tight In this rhinestone rodeo It was Dolly and Loretta Patsy and Tammy, too They gave me a seat at the table So I'm savin' one for you Talk about a trailblazer Cuttin' one path at a time Runnin' like a dream chaser Livin' on a prayer and a rhyme You put a flag in the ground to a country sound To the rhythm of your own highway Talk about a trailblazer I'm rollin' down the road you paved God said, "Let there be country music" He made good ol' country girls like us to do it Talk about a trailblazer Cuttin' one path at a time Runnin' like a dream chaser Livin' on a prayer and a rhyme You put a flag in the ground to a country sound To the rhythm of your own highway Talk about a trailblazer I'm rollin' down the road you paved Oh, thank you, trailblazers I'm rollin' down the road you paved
