It's the middle of July, someone tell him why
In her eyes, beauty fuses with a vague shiver
Momma bought that horse
Keepin her stable
But when she's off her high, she's the worst
He tried to be her hero, pulling in her reigns
But throwing dirt on her name is throwing shade in the wind
That horse'll grow stronger, it won't be much longer
Till winter comes
The snow scares him
He'll let it loose
He'll leave the gate open
He'll let it loose
He'll open the gate
He told her "take me by the hand momma," and she almost did
He's such a pill, pill, pill, pill
She told him mind his business
He said it's for your own good
It's for my own good
It's for our own good
He found where it was hidden
Cabinet near the fridge and
Waited till she dipped then
Made it disappear
He let it loose
He left the gate open
He let it loose
He opened the gate
When she returned, she didn't say a word
She gave a look before the look she gave
Run!
(Poor child, you better hang on)
He let it loose
He left the gate open
Run-run-run-run
Run-run-run-ru-un!
He let it loose
He opened the gate
Run!
(Poor child, you better hang on)
He let it loose
He left the gate open
Run-run-run-run
Run-run-run-ru-un!
He let it loose
He opened the gate
Every city's got its limits, this one's got him praying
But hoping to leave is more
Foolish than staying
He wants to be free, but
He can't set sail by himself yet
The city's too windy
So soon, he'll trade his books for boots
To which she'd refuse
He never had much, but his silver tongue
