I growed up awful fast
With no one at home
Television friends and remote control
But it's all right
Now I'm not alone

Ginny Mae's got a car and she loves me true
She pledged to me all her heart
And there's nothing she won't do
And I know,
All of the backroads

Fifteen years old
Some say's too young
And I know our folks think
We're both just kids and dumb
But we don't
And true love matters

We don't want to wait
Been kicked out of school
No jobs around here
Ain't nothing to do
And its no joke
If there's no hope

" But it makes me mad," I said
Ain't got no cash
But Ginny says she's got a plan
We're just gonna have to take a chance
That' s all
It'll be nice and easy
And then we'll go
And leave by the backroads

She knows a little store
Not too far from here
An old man alone
Ain't nothing to fear
Then we'll go
And leave by the back roads

So Ginny grabbed her daddy's gun
"Just in case" she said
That old man might be crazy
This will scare him half to death
"Don't mean nothing" I said
Let's just go
Two kid's flying fast
down a country road

Well Ginny's waiting by the door
Ready to go
We're a dime away from leaving
But time moves so slow
Headlights in the window
We both looked to see
And that d___ed old man
Turned and fired
And I heard Ginny scream

Well the last thing I remember
Was hearing Ginny sigh
As I held her close
I felt her breath
On my lips when she died
Why, don't know why

Don't mean nothing
But now I am alone
'Cept this ride one last time
Down country road
Home, I am going home
Home
