I can't blame it all on you
'Cause I'd be wrong
All in all, all all, in all
You're such a beautiful girl
Don't take my chances
Smile for the lenses
Live it up, you're growing up
Parties in the wilderness of life
Light it up, just give it up
Where the kids are running free tonight
The cars on the avenues
Can wait in line
All in all, all all, in all
Lived out this innocent time
Gold roads leave Kansas
Scarecrow loves dances
Live it up, you're growing up
Parties in the wilderness of life
Light it up, just give it up
Where the kids are running free tonight
They're running free tonight
They're running free
They're running free tonight
Live it up, you're growing up
Parties in the wilderness of life
Light it up, just give it up
Where the kids are running free tonight
Live it up, you're growing up
Parties in the wilderness of life
Light it up, just give it up
Where the kids are running free tonight
Where the kids are running free tonight
Where the kids are running free
'Cause I'd be wrong
All in all, all all, in all
You're such a beautiful girl
Don't take my chances
Smile for the lenses
Live it up, you're growing up
Parties in the wilderness of life
Light it up, just give it up
Where the kids are running free tonight
The cars on the avenues
Can wait in line
All in all, all all, in all
Lived out this innocent time
Gold roads leave Kansas
Scarecrow loves dances
Live it up, you're growing up
Parties in the wilderness of life
Light it up, just give it up
Where the kids are running free tonight
They're running free tonight
They're running free
They're running free tonight
Live it up, you're growing up
Parties in the wilderness of life
Light it up, just give it up
Where the kids are running free tonight
Live it up, you're growing up
Parties in the wilderness of life
Light it up, just give it up
Where the kids are running free tonight
Where the kids are running free tonight
Where the kids are running free

I like the Wizard of Oz references. They're very fitting in this song. Also, I think the line "Don't take my chances" is telling the addressee not to not take chances. She seems to regret not living life to fullest, so the chances she took were not taking any chances at all, if that makes sense. The lines "You're such a beautiful girl" and "Smile for the lenses" kind of make me think maybe she was self-conscious or shy when she was young, which maybe stopped her from being as free as she could have.
