She used to sit in the passenger seat
Tappin on the dash with her bare feet
Poppin that gum and paintin her toenails blue
Shed turn on the radio and crank it up
That girl could never get it loud enough
Shed make up words to songs she thought she knew
Yeah saturday nights wed lead the parade
Of tricked out fords and chevrolets
Wed cruise through town and head down to the lake
Well I was hangin with the boys a little bit later
Talkin bout tires and carburetors
When I happened to see my whole world drive away
Now Ive got nothin but taillights
Nothin but goodbye
Nothin but leavin goin on
And Im nothin but sorry
Got nothin but memories
Shes nothin but taillights gone
I aint sayin she stole that car
But that was may and this is march
And all I get are tickets in the mail
She was doin eighty-five in tennessee
Clocked in kansas doin ninety-three
I just hope she lets me post her bail
Cause Ive got nothin but taillights
Nothin but goodbye
Nothin but leavin goin on
And Im nothin but sorry
Got nothin but memories
Shes nothin but taillights gone...come back baby
Ive got nothin but taillights
Nothin but goodbye
Nothin but leavin goin on
And Im nothin but sorry
Got nothin but memories
Shes nothin but taillights gone
Lord shes nothin but taillights gone
