about

I am southern and this is an obnoxiously loud country song. It's about a girl named Kirstie Allie - No, not a song about Kirstie Ally - and the aftermath of her leaving her man.

lyrics

She left just like a bullet from a gun
All lipstick red and crazy from the sun
And I like to think she landed in Arizona
Got a fresh tattoo and finally had some fun

I still get dressed for church on Sunday mornings
Though I rarely ever make it out the door
And her mom still calls to check in every Monday
But even she don't ask about her anymore

Hey Kirstie Allie you wouldn't even know me now
Since I left the valley I won't drag that bag around
And we're never gonna live to see that Nashville skyline
We've run outta time
We've run outta time

I've finally shaken loose of this dusty town
Threw some things in the Vista Cruiser and I hit the road
Drove out through the desert under pitch black summer stars
Heading anywhere that I-40 goes

Hey Kirstie Allie you wouldn't even know me now
Since I left the valley I won't drag that bag around
And we're never gonna live to see that Nashville skyline
We've run outta time
We've run outta time
We've run outta time
We've run outta time
We've run outta time
We've run outta time
