Her name is Bobbie Lee and she's movin'   She's gotta make her dream come true   Some might said she took a dead wrong turn   But she took the only road she knew   There's nothin' gonna stop or stall her   And luck is on her side tonight   They're pullin over to the curb to call her   Man, she loves these city lights   She says   So what's the difference   I gotta live   I gotta be somebody   And I wanna go where the apples grow   And all I need is the money   Hey mister, smile and buy my time   And I don't want you fillin' funny   Just think of Bonnie Lee like a busy bee   Gettin by by sellin' honey   She's got this picture of her brother   That she took when she left home   She rolled her hair up like her mother   With her mother's ivory comb   She was sweet sixteen last easter   But she know how to treat you right   Tomorrow she's gonna be in the movies   But she won't forget tonight   She says   So what's the difference   I gotta live   I gotta be somebody   I wanna go where the apples grow   And all that I need is the money   Hey mister, smile and buy my time   And I don't want you fellin funny   You just think of Bobbie Lee like a busy bee   Gettin' by by sellin honey   So what's the difference   I gotta live   I gotta be somebody   I gotta go where the apples grow   And all I need is the money   Hey mister, smile and buy bye time   And I don't want you fellin funny   You just keep thinking of Bobbie Lee like that busy,busy bee   Gettin' by by sellin honey
