[Verse 1] In a world, in a town, on a road in a car Goin nowhere fast Just a girl with a boy whod never been that far And he could never go back I was tired of talking about going to college somewhere You were tired of your parents fighting downstairs We thought we could outrun our youth You and me could outrun the truth [Chorus] You werent just a prayer, you were my salvation You werent just my first, you were my education You werent just a song on the radio You were my solid gold centerfold Daddy hates my rock and roll Back seat dancin, we aint never growin old anthem Yeah, you were my anthem [Verse 2] In a house, in a room with a poster on the wall Looking for a way out In a yard, in the dark, climbin a fence just to fall Thought thats what love was about Even when you had to put my jacket around your shoulders We pretended that the summer wasnt over We thought we could outrun our youth You and me could outrun the truth See Kenny Chesney LiveGet tickets as low as 326You might also like[Chorus] You werent just a prayer, you were my salvation You werent just my first, you were my education You werent just a song on the radio You were my solid gold centerfold Daddy hates my rock and roll Back seat dancin, we aint never growin old anthem Yeah, you were my anthem [Bridge] You were the backbeat of freedom The front row kind of feeling And just what I needed to hear The kind you wanna sing along Baby, with your blue jeans on We thought we could outrun our youth You and me could outrun the truth [Chorus] You werent just a prayer, you were my salvation You werent just my first, you were my education You werent just a song on the radio You were my solid gold centerfold Daddy hates my rock and roll Back seat dancin, we aint never growin old anthem Yeah, you were my anthem [Outro] The kind you want to sing along The kind you want to sing along
