Let Me Go

He was sitting on his tailgate
 She was lovin' on his roughneck
 She was talking about running away
 And 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 shis head
 Then he said, ain't you been listening?
 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 holding 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 nothin' but a drifter
 You could do a lot better
 Then leaned over and he kissed her
 He said you got another year of college
 And a good momma and a daddy
 And me, I got $93 in this old '82 Chevy
 So let me go
 You don't need me baby
 Stop holding 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
 Let me go
 Take me with you baby
 I belong where you are
 We both know that you're not as strong as you think you are
 So let me go
 Take me with you baby
 I belong where you are
 Don't you know I'm so good for you
 And it'll only break your heart
 Down the road
 If you don't
 Let me go
 With you baby
 Let me go
 With you baby
 Just let me go
