I bet this road will take me out of here
Take me far away from Amarillo
I bet this car will go real fast
The wheels might even drive me past
The places that you said I´d never go
Oh...

The Texas Sky is the biggest one I´ve seen
But it still aint big enough for you and me
All the things that make you mad,
All the baggage in your past
Don´t leave much room for a girl like me to be
So I´ll fill her up with hope and worn-out dreams

An I´ll grab the wheel and point it west
Pack the good and leave the rest
I´ll drive until I find the missing piece
You said I wouldn´t get too far on a tank of gas
And an empty heart
But I have everything I´ll ever need
I got this old guitar and a brand new set of strings

Mama said I never should have done it
Should have ended us before we ever started
Daddy knew about my pride so he stood there
And he smiled inside and I pretended that I
Didn´t notice a little tear that fell when I said I was going

An I´ll grab the wheel and point it west
Pack the good and leave the rest
I´ll drive until I find the missing piece
You said I wouldn´t get too far on a tank of gas
And an empty heart
But I have everything I´ll ever need
I got this old guitar and a brand new set of strings

I´ve worried about life and
If it´s arriving right on time
I guess if you don´t jump
You´ll never know if you can fly


An I´ll grab the wheel and point it west
Pack the good and leave the rest
I´ll drive until I find the missing piece
You said I wouldn´t get too far on a tank of gas
And an empty heart
But I have everything I´ll ever need
I got this old guitar and a brand new set of strings
