[Verse 1] I was runnin’ from the law, she was runnin’ from her life… Spinnin’ slow in a corner room with fear behind her eyes Cheap perfume and a broken past, held together tight Yeah the kind of look that begs for help but don’t know how to ask [Pre-Chorus] He walked in like he owned her soul I felt her eyes say “don’t let go” [Chorus] She was a go-go girl, breakin’ every heart I was a mustang man, torn apart Two wild hearts on a one-way track With nothin’ but dust and danger at our backs We burned down that road past that last chance saloon Dancin’ with the law and the devil’s tune Just a go-go girl and a mustang man Runnin’ like forever was contraband [Verse 2] Tires screamed on a black-top flight Dust kicked up in the pale moonlight She said “don’t slow down, don’t you dare look back” I said “girl, I ain’t built for that” Glass hit the floor when I took that swing Whole place froze for a heartbeat sting Grabbed her hand and we didn’t wait Hit that door like a twist of fate [Pre-Chorus] No plan, no peace, just gasoline And a couple wrongs in between [Chorus] She was a go-go girl, breakin’ every heart I was a mustang man, torn apart Two wild hearts on a one-way track With nothin’ but dust and danger at our backs We burned down that road past that last chance saloon Dancin’ with the law and the devil’s tune Just a go-go girl and a mustang man Runnin’ like forever was contraband [Bridge] Blacktop faded into red dirt sand Blue lights risin’ like a final stand She took my hand, said “this is it” I said “girl, I wouldn’t change one little bit” [half-spoken] I held her hand… and put the pedal to the metal... [Final Chorus] She was a go-go girl, leavin’ hurt behind I was a mustang man, outta road and time Two wild souls at the edge of the line With nothin’ left but one last ride Yeah we burned like fire no rain could save Two hearts ridin’ to an outlaw grave Just a go-go girl and a mustang man Goin’ out together like the good Lord planned Just a go-go girl and a mustang man… [Outro] I was runnin’ from the law… she was runnin’ from her life…
