I packed up my two-door Ford, he don't love me anymore
I made a phone call home and now I'm on my way
And I, cursed his name down sixty-five
Need new brakes, and need new tires
And hell, I'm tired

Who's it gonna be? We're both leavin' Tennessee
Two years down the drain, two hundred thousand on the gauge
A broken taillight, a broken heart
how'd we even get this far?
I'm fightin' back the tears runnin' on E
Who's gonna break down first, this Mustang or me?

I stopped for gas and cigarettes
Hoods blowin' smoke, I'm smokin' reds
A stranger asked if I was okay
Laughed it off said, "No, what gave it away?
Was it the leaking oil or the lonely on my face? "

Who's it gonna be? We're both leavin' Tennessee
Two years down the drain, two hundred thousand on the gauge
A broken taillight, a broken heart
how'd we even get this far?
I'm fighting back the tears runnin' on E
Who's gonna break down first, this Mustang or me?

One hour to go, it's gettin' late
I'm flyin' down the interstate
I thought that I was gonna make it home
But I heard our song on the radio

Who's it gonna be? I'd put all my money on me
Two years down the drain, two hundred thousand on the gauge
A broken taillight, a broken heart
how'd we even get this far?
I'm fightin' back the tears runnin' on E
Who's gonna break down first?
Who's gonna break down first, this Mustang or me?
