Lyrics
Well, my friends said she's an outsider she never quite fit in While we downing our Jack and Buds she was sipping on her tonic and Gin
They said she's too big city for a small-town boy
But when she drove off and said jump in we can make a brand new start
My friends said this is where you grand folks are buried
There's the church where they prayed
But if I can't wake up next to you
I can't think of one reason to stay
So may the bridges I burn
May the bridges I burn
Light my way
Well, we all tailgating at the Friday night football game
She just sat there looked at her nails said this is lame
They said it wasn't a big surprise when she packed up her little car
But as the doors flew open she said jump in we can take this real, real far
My friends said this where you grew up
There's the church where you prayed
But if I can't wake up next to you
I can't think of one reason to stay
So may the bridges I burn
May the bridges I burn
Light my way
So may the bridges I burn
May the bridges I burn
Light my way
Back to you
They say you can't go home again
Well, I guess that's OK
So may the bridges I burn
May the bridges I burn
Light my way
So may the bridges I burn
May the bridges I burn
Light my way
Back to you
Back to you
Light my way
