Dusty roads circle through the junkyard scraps |Coal train's frozen to a rusty old track|Had me a dream to give that highway a whirl|Some dreams change fast - I stayed for the girl||Young gun shoulderin' a thousand pound chip |Anywhere's better than the hole you're in|But I couldn't let her be the girl in the songs I've heard |The ones that got away - so I stayed for the girl ||You can fly you can ride|You can roll you can run |But everything's nothin' unless you got someone |If I would've left here than I would've lost her|I stayed I stayed I stayed for the girl ||Hard heads drag around the heaviest hearts|Never know what they got til they've gone too far |If there ever was a smile that I knew I couldn't leave |It's the one right here smilin' back at me||You can fly you can ride|You can roll you can run |But everything's nothin' unless you got someone |If I would've left here than I would've lost her|I stayed I stayed I stayed for the girl ||I stayed from the very first night|I'll stay for the rest of our lives ||CHORUS
