Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mama’s at the front door
Folded arms, tight jaw
Daddy leans on the counter
Says, “You sure you thought this through at all?”
Cardboard hearts in the hallway
My whole life in the back of this truck
They talk about staying
But my heart keeps saying “get up, get up”
[Chorus]
There’s a highway with my name on it
Stretching past this county line
I got one last look in the rearview mirror
Then I’m chasing what’s been on my mind
You can call it crazy
You can call it walking away
But I call it following dreams
And I ain’t letting family make me stay
[Verse 2]
Sister’s in the driveway crying
Says, “Who am I gonna run to now?”
I hand her my favorite jacket
Say, “You’ll find me, girl, some way, somehow”
Granddad’s Bible on the dashboard
He slipped it in when no one saw
Guess he knows that loving someone
Don’t mean putting chains on what they want
[Chorus]
There’s a highway with my name on it
Stretching past this county line
I got one last look in the rearview mirror
Then I’m chasing what’s been on my mind
You can call it crazy
You can call it walking away
But I call it following dreams
And I ain’t letting family make me stay
[Bridge]
I’ll miss Sunday supper
I’ll miss Friday night games
But I’d miss myself forever
If I never tried to change
(oh, I gotta go)
[Chorus]
There’s a highway with my name on it
Stretching past this county line
I got one last look in the rearview mirror
As their porch light fades behind
You can call it crazy
You can call it walking away
But I call it following dreams
And I ain’t letting family make me stay
Yeah, I’m following dreams
And I ain’t letting anything make me stay

Style
country, Modern country ballad with steady mid-tempo groove, brushed drums, warm pedal steel and fiddle swells. Male vocals up front, intimate in the verses, bigger and grittier on the choruses. Acoustic guitar drives the rhythm; electric guitar adds melodic fills. Big singalong hook in the chorus with stacked harmonies and a key-change lift on the final repeat.
