Lyrics
She was just a little girl with her eyes on the stars
Running through the fields dreaming she'd go far
With a heart full of courage and a mind sharp as steel
She said, one day I'll wear that badge and justice will be real
The world around her laughed, said that's no job for you
Girls don't wear the marshal's badge, find something else to do
Phoebe stood tall, with her chin held high
She whispered to herself, I'll show them why
She dreamed big, she dreamed bold
Told the world I won't be told
What a girl can be, where a girl can go
Prove I'm wrong, just watch me grow
From a little town to the nation's call
Phoebe's dream stood strong and tall
So all you girls with stars in your eyes
Keep on dreaming, you'll touch the skies
She studied hard, with her nose in a book
While they all doubted, she gave them a second look
With every note she heard, it only fueled her fire
She said, I'm not here to fin, I'm here to inspire
And when she got her chance, that day finally came
The first woman marshal, they remember her name
She stood in that courtroom, badge shining bright
Proved to the world a girl can fight for what's right
She dreamed big, she dreamed bold
Told the world I won't be told
What a girl can be, where a girl can go
Prove I'm wrong, just watch me grow
From a little town to the nation's call
Phoebe's dream stood strong and tall
So all you girls with stars in your eyes
Keep on dreaming, you'll touch the skies
She said, it's not what you are, but what you can be
Don't let the words put you down, just believe and you'll see
She broke the chain, she knocked down the door
Made a place for every girl who dreams and more
As the first woman marshal, Phoebe led the way
In the halls of justice, she had her say
She fought for women's rights, held her ground with pride
Made sure that justice wasn't pushed aside
She paved the path for those yet to come
Proved that with courage, great things can be done
From the courtroom to the streets, she made her stand
The first woman marshal, a hero in the land
She dreamed bold, told the world I won't be told
What a girl can be, where a girl can go
Prove I'm wrong, just watch me grow
From a little town to the nation's call
Phoebe's dream stood strong and tall
So all you girls with stars in your eyes
Keep on dreaming, you'll touch the skies
Phoebe Cousins broke down every wall
Became the first woman marshal, answering the call
She fought for justice, she fought for change
Her accomplishments now fill history's page
She blazed a trail that shines so bright
For every little girl chasing dreams tonight
With Phoebe's spirit, you can lead the way
For tomorrow's hero's starting today
For tomorrow's hero's starting today
