Wings Lyrics
[FRIDA with THE HOOSIERDADDIES (THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
(Ah-ooo!) Mama told me not to waste my life (Ah-ooo!)
She said spread your wings my little butterfly (Ah-ooo!)
Don't let what they say keep you up at night (Ah-ooo!)
And if they give you hell
Then they can walk on by
My
[FRIDA (with THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
Feet, feet can't touch the ground
And I can't hear a sound
But you just keep on (Running up your mouth, yeah!)
Walk, walk on over there
'Cause I'm too fly to (Care... oh, yeah!)
[FRIDA with THE HOOSIERDADDIES]
Your words don't mean a thing
I'm not listening
Keep talking, all I know is
Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
(Ah-ooo!) Mama told me not to waste my life (Ah-ooo!)
She said spread your wings my little butterfly (Ah-ooo!)
Don't let what they say keep you up at night (Ah-ooo!)
And if they give you hell
Then they can walk on by
My
[FRIDA (with THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
Feet, feet can't touch the ground
And I can't hear a sound
But you just keep on (Running up your mouth, yeah!)
Walk, walk on over there
'Cause I'm too fly to (Care... oh, yeah!)
[FRIDA with THE HOOSIERDADDIES]
Your words don't mean a thing
I'm not listening
Keep talking, all I know is
Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
No, we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
[FRIDA (with THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
Hey, hey
I'm firing up on that runway
I know we're gonna get there someday
But we don't need no ready steady go, no
Talk, talk turns into air
And I don't even (Care... oh, yeah!)
[FRIDA with THE HOOSIERDADDIES (THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
Your words don't mean a thing
I'm not listening
Keep talking, all I know is
Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
No, we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me (And I, and I)
Don't matter if I fall from the sky, (And I, and I)
These wings are made to (Fly)
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
[FRIDA (with THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
Hey, hey
I'm firing up on that runway
I know we're gonna get there someday
But we don't need no ready steady go, no
Talk, talk turns into air
And I don't even (Care... oh, yeah!)
[FRIDA with THE HOOSIERDADDIES (THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
Your words don't mean a thing

No, we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me (And I, and I)
Don't matter if I fall from the sky, (And I, and I)
These wings are made to (Fly)
[FRIDA (with THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
I don't need no one saying
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
I don't hear no one saying
(Hey!) Hey!
(Hey!) Hey!
(Hey!) Hey!
(Hey!)
[FRIDA with THE HOOSIERDADDIES (THE HOOSIERDADDIES)]
You better keep on walking
I don't wanna hear your talking, boy
