Hang in There Girl

About fifteen, grey sweatpants

On the edge of the road, puttin' up a flag

On a beat-up mailbox

Barely hanging on

Half a mile on the other side

Of the low water bridge and the poverty line

Two old mutts and a single wide

That's home

I know, all too well, that look in her eyes

Yeah, I've been right there

At the end of that drive

Hang in there girl

Hang in there girl

Hang in there girl

You gonna be alright

Tangled up in the small town weeds

Dreamin' of the day you leave

And all the places you wanna be

I know

A set of wheels, a set of keys

You can almost feel that summer breeze

Check the oil and the anti-freeze

And go

When that moment comes, buckle up and hold on tight

Yeah, I've been right there

At the end of that drive

Hang in there girl

Hang in there girl

Hang in there girl

You gonna be alright

Trust me when I say you're doin' fine

You know, growin' up takes a little time

Hang in there girl

Hang in there girl

Hang in there girl

You gonna be alright

Hang in there girl

Hang in there girl

Hang in there girl

You gonna be alright

Alright
