Artist/Band: Emmylou Harris
Lyrics for Song: Wildflowers
Lyrics for Album: Trio (Emmylou Harris & Dolly Parton & Linda Ronstadt) [Warner Bro [1987]



(Dolly Parton)



The hills were alive with wildflowers

And I was as wild even wilder than they

For at least I could run they just died in the sun

And I refused to just wither in place.



Just a wild mountain rose needing freedom to grow

So I ran fearing up where I'd go

When a flower grows wild it can always survive

Wildflowers don't care where they grow.



And the flowers I knew in the fields where I grew

Were content to be lost in the crowd

They were common and close, I had no room for growth

And I wanted so much to branch out.



So I uprooted myself from home ground and left

Took my dreams and I took to the road

When a flower grows wild it can always survive

Wildflowers don't care where they grow.



--- Instrumental ---



I grew up fast and wild and I never felt right

In a garden so different from me

I just never belonged, I just longed to be gone

So the garden one day set me free.



I hitched a ride with the wind and since he was my friend

I just let him decide where we'd go

When a flower grows wild it can always survive

Wildflowers don't care where they grow.



Just a wild mountain rose seeking mist'ries untold

No regret for the path that I chose

When a flower grows wild it can always survive

Wildflowers don't care where they grow.



Mhm hm hm mhm...

Wildflowers don't care where they grow...
