Let Me Go

They were sittin on his tailgate

She was lovin on his roughneck

She was talkin bout runnin away

While he was puffin on a cigarette

& just thinkin

How am I gonna say goodbye

He said girl you got it good here

You don't need to mess with

A guy going nowhere

She said how's about Texas?

He got up and shook his head

Then said

Aint ya been listenin

It's never gonna work out

And I think it'd be a good time now

To let me go

You don't need me baby

Stop holdin on the way you are

Don't you know I'm no good for you

And it'll only break your heart

If you don't let me go

He said other than a dreamer

I ain't nothing but a drifter

You could do a lot better

He leaned over and he kissed her

He said you'd got another year of college

And a good momma and a daddy

And me I got 93 dollars and this old '82 Chevy

So let me go

You don't need me baby

Stop holdin on the way you are

Don't you know I'm no good for you

And it'll only break your heart

If you don't let me go

She said nice try

But you can't hide behind those shades there on your face

See I don't think you're all that tough

I just think you're scared of love

And I think I won't take up that much space

So let me go

Take me with ya baby

It's so cold outside your arms

And we both know that you're not as strong

As you think you are

So let me go take me with ya baby

I'm alone where you are

We both know I'm so good for you

And it'll only break ya heart

Down the road if you don't let me go...

With ya baby

Let me go
