Lyrics Dorothy - Judy Collins

Living in Kansas a life alobe
She never married shes hardly known
She stares out the window far away
Looking for another windy day

Dorothy was a fool to leave
She could've stayed
She had it right in her hands
She had it made
She could have had it all for keeps
She was afraid
She could've stayed

It seems like only yesterday
But forty years have all been slipped away
Since a lovely black haired girl
Was taken for a one and only whirl

Dorothy was a fool to leave
She could've stayed
She had it right in her hands
She had it made
She could have had it all for keeps
She was afraid
She could've stayed

Same old blue bird flying high
Over rainbows in the Kansas sky
Why oh why oh why oh why

I guess it only serves her right
For trading all that color for black and white
All her sorrow all because
There ain't no way to stay in Kansas
When you've been in Oz

Dorothy was a fool to leave
She could've stayed
She had it right in her hands
She had it made
She could have had it all for keeps
She was afraid
She could've stayed
She could've stayed
She could've stayed
