Lyrics
Verse
Tail lights fadin' down that gravel drive
Dust kickin' up like it don't wanna say goodbye
Your boots still got mud from last Friday night
But you're packin' up, leavin' me high and dry
Verse
We burned rubber racin' down county line
Cold beer buzz, your hand in mine
Thought forever was more than a song on the radio
Now it's just taillights in the rearview glow
Chorus
Yeah, girl, you're breakin' my heart on this dirt road
Runnin' from us like a runaway freight train load
I ain't blamin' you, but damn it hurts so
Why'd you have to go? Why'd you have to go?
(Why'd you have to go)
Truck's still runnin', engine screamin' low
But you're gone, baby, down that dirt road
Verse
Remember dancin' in the bed of my Ford
Bonfire cracklin', laughin' 'til we couldn't no more
You said you'd love me like the river runs deep
Now I'm sittin' here with nothin' but memories to keep
Chorus
Yeah, girl, you're breakin' my heart on this dirt road
Runnin' from us like a runaway freight train load
I ain't blamin' you, but damn it hurts so
Why'd you have to go? Why'd you have to go?
(Why'd you have to go)
Truck's still runnin', engine screamin' low
But you're gone, baby, down that dirt road
Bridge
One last call, but it goes straight to voicemail
Wish I could turn back time, hit the brakes, derail
But you're haulin' ass toward a brand new start
Leavin' me here with a busted-up heart
Chorus
Yeah, girl, you're breakin' my heart on this dirt road
(Dirt road, yeah) Runnin' from us like a runaway freight train load
I ain't blamin' you, but damn it hurts so
Why'd you have to go? Why'd you have to go? (go, go)
Truck's still runnin', engine screamin' low
But you're gone, baby, down that dirt road
Yeah, down that dirt road
Outro
(Dirt road) Yeah...
(Why'd you have to go)
Gone down that dirt road
