[Verse 1]
The sun's goin' down on those little white lines
There's a whole lot of home sick, ridin' shotgun on the passenger side
Oh, and what's up ahead, it's not quite clear
But everything she knew just keeps gettin' smaller in the rearview mirror
[Pre-Chorus]
'89 Chevrolet
The AC's busted, but the radio plays
As she flies on faith down the highway

Fifty dollars and a dashboard Jesus
She's leavin'
Chasin' down the taste of freedom
Sometimes, all you really need is
Fifty dollars and a dashboard Jesus
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
