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
