Pontiac

I used to worry about nothing

Said I'd never grow up, and

I fell in love and it was enough until it wasn't

I used to dream that we could make it

But now I'm workin' on a paycheck

And the voice on the line says I'm doing fine

Can you tell that I'm faking?

And we watched our friends play the same old game

And we all pretend that we're okay

When we wanna say

Take me back to the time when getting old was turning twenty-five

The single CD that you burned me, we played it back

The way we laugh, windows down

Rolling 'round the south side of town

On your flip phone, you told your dad, no, you wouldn't crash

Maybe we went too fast

In your Pontiac

My mama worried about my marriage

But now I'm worried about my parents

You could try to run from what runs in your blood

But you still gotta share it

And we watch our friends play the same old game

And we all pretend that we're okay

When we wanna say

Take me back to the time when getting old was turning twenty-five

The single CD that you burned me, we played it back

The way we laughed, windows down

Rolling 'round the south side of town

On your flip phone, you told your dad, no, you wouldn't crash

Maybe we went too fast

In your Pontiac

I used to worry 'bout real life

Until I fell into your eyes

I fell in love and it was enough to make me realize

You take me back to the time when getting old was turning twenty-five

The single CD that you burned me, we played it back

The way we laugh, windows down

Rolling 'round the south side of town

On your flip phone, you told your dad, no, you wouldn't crash

Maybe we went too fast

Maybe we went too—

Maybe we went too fast

In your Pontiac
