Let Me Go
They were sitting on his tailgate
She was loving on his rough neck
She was talking ' bout running away
He was puffing on a cigarette
Just thinking
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 about Texas
He got up and shook his head then 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 nothing but a drifter
You could do a lot better
He leaned over and he kissed her
He said you got another year of college and
A good mama and a daddy
And me I got 93 dollars
And this old 82 Chevy
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
It ' s so could outside your arms
And we both know
That you ' re not as strong as you think you are
Let me go take me with you 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
Let me go with you baby
Let me go with you baby
Let me go
