I'm hoping if she hears Strait play
Something in it might make her hesitate
If she has to wait for that train to go by
That'll give her mind time to think twice
We've had fights before but not this kind
The way that door slammed hit a little different tonight
I might lose her for real this time
If that DJ don't play our Number
If that single stop light don't stop her
If That y'all Come back Sign don't Sink In
If the Check Engine don't start blinking
Then She'll probably make it to Atlanta
And be closing in on never coming back
I'm just tryna' keep her on
This side of that
I try not to think in hypotheticals
But i'm having a time trying to play it cool
I know she said she'd never leave
But even for me it's getting harder to believe
There ain't a trace nothing behind
I might lose her for real this time
If that DJ don't play our number
If that single stop light don't stop her
If That y'all Come back sign don't sink in
If the Check Engine don't start blinking
Then She'll probably make it to Atlanta
And be closing in on never coming back
I'm just tryna' keep her on
This side of that
This side of that goodbye that finally sticks
I'm wondering what the hell would happen if
If that DJ don't play our number
If that single stop light don't stop her
If That y'all Come back sign don't sink in
If the Check Engine don't start blinking
Then She'll probably make it to Atlanta
And be closing in on never coming back
I'm just tryna' keep her on
This side of that
