Lyrics
Verse 1
Left me the one that coughs in the rainTook the ride with the honest engineWaved like a postcard, lipstick neatLove in reverse, tires singing
Chorus
She took the better carLeft me prideShe took the better carNice goodbyeDust and keysThat’s the deal
Verse 2
I still got a radio that liesAnd a seat that remembers herHighway don’t care who won the splitIt just sells you another mile
Chorus
She took the better carLeft me prideShe took the better carNice goodbyeDust and keysThat’s the deal
Bridge
Ain’t cursing the chromeAin’t chasing the taillightShe packed the futureI packed the joke
Final Chorus
She took the better carNice goodbyeThat’s the deal
