On some highway past some small town Somewhere cutting through the middle of the night There's a girl in a car with a crack in her heart and a one-way tear in her eye Couldn't fake it or take it anymore, she finally gave up trying to save him Now, she's moving on, rolling on the same damn thing she gave him 'Cause she gave him Four good years, 3 a.m., two-lane gone One girl that ain't looking back again Windows down, heartbreak song Burnin' up the black top ground that they're spinning on, spinning on Wheeling and dealing with the feelings Like she's stealin' back time that all went to waste Yeah, when the tread wears away Well, she knows she can change those tires But she can't replace four good years, yeah Just a runaway '98, hand me down Chevrolet Coupe that she got from her dad Yeah, he always made sure they were safe Even they weren't losing air with a spare in the back And he prayed that this day'd never come (never come) But if it did, his little girl'd be running on Four good years, 3 a.m., two-lane gone One girl that ain't looking back again Windows down, heartbreak song Burnin' up the black top ground that they're spinning on, spinning on Wheeling and dealing with the feelings Like she's stealin' back time that all went to waste Yeah, when the tread wears away Well, she knows she can change those tires But she can't replace four good years, yeah, four good years Four good years She loved him so good, so damn good But he just didn't know how to She did everything she could, everything she could And now, she's doing what she's gotta do On four good years, 3 a.m., two-lane gone One girl that ain't looking back again Windows down, heartbreak song Burnin' up the black top ground that they're spinning on, spinning on Wheeling and dealing with the feelings Like she's stealin' back time that all went to waste Yeah, when the tread wears away Well, she knows she can change those tires But she can't replace four good years (four good years) Four good years (yeah, four good years) On some highway past some small town Somewhere cutting through the middle of the night
