My momma mapped out the road that she knows
Which hands you shake and which hands you hold
In my hand-me-down Mercury ready to roll
She knew that I had to go

And hang out; make lots of noise
And lay out late with a boy
Make the mistakes that she made
'Cause she knew all along

I was already gone
I was already gone
I was already gone
Life is a runaway train you can't wait to jump on

They say the first time won't ever last
That didn't stop me the first time he laughed
All my friends tried to warn me the day that we met
Girl, don't you lose your heart yet

But his dark eyes dared me with danger
And sparks fly like flame to a paper
Fire in his touch burning me up
But still i held on

'Cause I was already gone
I was already gone
I was already gone
Life is a runaway train you can't wait to jump on

The last time I saw him we packed up my things
And he smiled like the first time he told me his name
And we cried with each other
We split the blame for the parts
That we couldn't change

Pictures, dishes and socks
It's our whole life
Down to one box
There he was waving goodbye on the front porch alone

But I was already gone
I was already gone
i was already gone
i was already gone
I was already gone

Hang out make; lots of noise
And lay out late with a boy
Make the mistakes that she made
Life is a runaway train
My dark eyes dared me with danger
And sparks fly like wind to a paper
Fire in his touch

(My momma mapped out the road that she knows
Which hands to shake and which hands you hold
in my hand-me-down Mercury)

Life is a run away train you can't wait to jump on
