Her bag was packed by the side of the door
c lifetime ago
The end of the block was the edge of the world
Of all that she'd known

The bus drove up to the old sidewalk
She could see it broke Mama's heart
To watch her go
But that's when she heard

cnywhere you could run
cnywhere you could land at the end of the story
If it leaves you alone
cnd you feel like you just wanna run back home
You can be sure you can come back from
cnywhere you could run

In Davidson County riding shotgun
With a cranked radio
They were still out on the wrong side of 1
Thinking they're grown

She called home when they wrecked that car
Scared of breaking her mama's heart
cnd lettin' her down
But that's when she heard

cnywhere you could run
cnywhere you could land at the end of the story
If it leaves you alone
cnd it feels like you just wanna run back home
You can be sure you can come back from
cnywhere you could run

Hearing his voice at the end of the line
High and she knows
He blew through the rent money one more time
She hates to say no
Seems like nothing comes out but tears
Then her Mama's voice in her ears
Makes her strong

cnd that's when she says

cnywhere you could run
cnywhere you could land at the end of the story
If it leaves you alone
and it feels like you just wanna run back home
You can be sure you can come back from
cnywhere you could run
cnywhere you could run
