lyrics

Wild eyes a pretty smile
Born and raised in the well fare line
Basic needs and dirt road dreams
In love with the boy from down the street

They said she had her mother’s nose
Shown in a picture from long ago but it’s
Tucked away deep in her pocket
The only thing left and her mother’s locket

She filled the bed of Jacky’s truck
He started the engine to pick her up
Feelin’ the gravel roll beneath each wheel
And the rear view makes their world look small
But they aren’t scared at all
‘Casue the taste of freedom lingers on her lips
And it started with a kiss

They drove all through the afternoon
Singing along with a Johnny Cash tune but
“Man in Black” reminds her of her father
She’s all grown up and gone is his daughter

She filled the bed of Jacky’s truck
He started the engine to pick her up
Feelin’ the gravel roll beneath each wheel
And the rear view makes their world look small
But they aren’t scared at all
‘Casue the taste of freedom lingers on her lips

Now Jacky’s hands drape around her seat
And the dusty dash show the grips of her feet
Home is a place away from heart break
Now all they need is some gasoline
And a place to start out fresh and clean
They need some space to make their own mistakes so

She filled the bed of Jacky’s truck
He started the engine to pick her up
Feelin’ the gravel roll beneath each wheel
And the rear view makes their world look small
But they aren’t scared at all
‘Casue the taste of freedom lingers on her lips
And it started with a kiss
