Headstrong

A runnin' wild child

Leavin' the meanwhile for the ones back home

'Cause they couldn't hold me

And no fence could hold me

'Cause I was too far gone

Headstrong

My daddy and mother and my own brother

Say I'm livin' wrong

'Cause I couldn't stick around that one-horse town

Or hang my hat too high

Headstrong

Headstrong into the next storm

Wide open out the back door

Let that northern wind chill me to the bone

Headstrong into the dark clouds

Drivin' rain ain't slowin' me down

No time for goodbyes, it's just so long

Headstrong

Well, I don't tell 'em everything that's really goin' on

I ain't goin' hungry

Got plenty of money

Hold the tears and hang up the phone

Headstrong

Headstrong into the next storm

Wide open out the back door

Let that northern wind chill me to the bone

Headstrong into the dark clouds

Drivin' rain ain't slowin' me down

No time for goodbyes, it's just so long

Headstrong

Headstrong into the next storm

Wide open out the back door

Let that northern wind chill me to the bone

Headstrong into the dark clouds

Drivin' rain ain't slowin' me down

No time for goodbye when you're chasin' a song

So for now, I'll just say so long

Headstrong

Runnin' wild child

Leavin' the meanwhile for the ones back home
