[Verse 1]
Mack's got mud on her boots
By the first bell ring
Got a book in her bag
But she'd rather chase spring
She's got pine in her hair
And a wild kind of grin
If the day feels too small
She just slips right out again
[Pre-Chorus]
She's got a creek for a classroom
A trail for a hall
Got a sky full of answers
And a fence she might crawl
When the world starts feelin' tight
She hears the wild call
[Chorus]
Mack, Mack, run wild
Mack, Mack, run wild
She'd rather chase the wind
Than sit still in a row
Mack, Mack, run wild
Mack, Mack, run wild
Anywhere but school
Is where her heart wants to go
[Verse 2]
She knows every deer track
By the old back gate
Can climb like a squirrel
And she ain't never late
To the pond at dusk
Or the hill at dawn
She'd trade a chalkboard day
For a rabbit trail song
[Pre-Chorus]
She's got a creek for a classroom
A trail for a hall
Got a sky full of answers
And a fence she might crawl
When the world starts feelin' tight
She hears the wild call
[Chorus]
Mack, Mack, run wild
Mack, Mack, run wild
She'd rather chase the wind
Than sit still in a row
Mack, Mack, run wild
Mack, Mack, run wild
Anywhere but school
Is where her heart wants to go
[Bridge]
One day she might learn
What the whole town knew
Some girls bloom in boots
Under a sky so blue
Give her room, give her room
And she'll figure it out
With a little dirt on her knees
And a big dream in her shout
[Chorus]
Mack, Mack, run wild
Mack, Mack, run wild
She'd rather chase the wind
Than sit still in a row
Mack, Mack, run wild
Mack, Mack, run wild
Anywhere but school
Is where her heart wants to go
