What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Barely old enough to legally drive
2
She took off in her stepmother's van
3
A restlessness that blew her over the line
4
Like the wind inside an aluminum can
5
At a pay phone in a donut shop
6
She called a friend back home
7
"We're all worried and they've called the cops
8
Are you crazy? Where have you gone?"
9
She said, "What would you do if you were me
10
When it's suicide to stay and murder to leave?"
11
She ran out of gas down in New Mexico
12
And got a job at a local cafe
13
Friday nights they featured live rock and roll
14
She fell in love with a boy who played
15
He had soulful eyes and Indian blood
16
No intention of hangin' around
17
All he took was his harmonica
18
And her heart when he left town
19
He said, "What would you do if you were me
20
When it's suicide to stay and murder to leave?"
21
She never married but she did have a child
22
A sweet young girl by the name of Sioux
23
She had spirit and a heart breaking smile
24
And some beat up moccasin boots
25
And they had nothing but each other's love
26
An apartment by the tracks
27
And when came the day that Sioux grew up
28
She said, "Someday I'll be back"
29
Oh now what would you do if you were me?
30
When it's suicide to stay and murder to leave?
